Solved

Hello,

I want to print with 2 different rotations on the same Word page. There’s no problem with the layout, but as soon as I print, one side becomes completely illegible.

Are there settings to configure in Word for this type of printing, or should I look into the photocopier instead?

    Have you created text boxes?

    You could create one text box, duplicate it, and apply a rotation to the box...

    Hello

    contrariness, thank you for taking the time to explain the process to me,
    but when you had your suggestion earlier in the conversation, I understood it to be a feature of Word
    that I didn't know which duplicated and rotated by itself
    because the manipulation you described is the one I initially used in my Word, and although there are no issues in the layout, the result is poor when I print it.

    Hello,

    Yes, indeed I placed my text in text areas with borders.

    .

    ... you can also use Excel instead of Word!

    Hello everyone,

    thank you very much for your suggestions.

    @contrariness can you explain to me how to do this duplication and rotation? I also take note of changing the font.

    @Raymond PENTIER thank you for your advice, if it doesn't work on Word I'll switch to Excel.

    thanking you

      You perform "insertinon": Text box. (simple)
      You put your text in it (without the icon)
      Then Menu "Home" to center, choose the font, and the size (which can always be changed)
      Next menu "Format": Text orientation (whichever you want)
      Select the text box (the cursor changes shape if you hover over the edge) and Ctrl+V Ctrl+V to copy/paste
      Move the pasted text box and rotate the text..
      Deselect the areas and insert the icon
      Select the icon and right click for "Size and Position". In Wrapping select "Through text".
      Apply the desired rotation etc....
