I'd like to create a CD cover, but I'm not able to rotate the text so that it is readable on the side of the CD. What is the procedure for this action?


Follow this procedure:

  • Click on the Text icon in the Tool bar (the left side bar).
  • Draw a text box of the desired size on the document page and insert your text.
  • Click outside the text box to finish the text insertion.
  • Click with the left button on your text to select it again.
  • Right click on the selected text box to display the context menu.
  • From the context menu choose: Position and Size.
  • Under the Rotation tab, select the desired Pivot Point and Rotation Angle.
  • Click the OK button.
