Wish I found this 5 mins ago - have just battled and got nowhere!  Had given
a passing thought to going landscape and doing the opposite-sideways trick
but speed was of the essence!  Even tried doing it in Excel and Publisher
and still couldn't get it working the way I wanted.  (I was trying to print
some tented signs that would show text on both sides)

How weird tho that all these years on we still aren't *allowed* to want to
type upside down as a matter of course!

Thanks Dian!

You can use Word art, but another easy (easier) method is to turn the text
vertical in textboxes. When you print the doc, the text will be upside down.

See this article for a clearer explanation and screen shots.

Using word 2000 does anyone know how to change the orientation of the text
so that it is upside down?
