I am trying to make some wire tags using standard address labels.
I want to place text twice per label along the ends of the tags so I can then wrap them around cables.
Rotating text is a pain and time consuming to make a lot of different tags.
If I could just rotate an Avery label template 90 degrees so the labels are all "side ways" I could just type what I want and print them.
I changed paper orientation from portrait to landscape but while that does rotate the paper it does NOT rotate the template for the labels.
How can I rotate the ENTIRE page including the template fields?
Thanks

Re: Rotate Page 90%
Define your own label template with a sheet in landscape mode and with the labels vertical. See the manual or help for defining a label template.

Or create a table in a landscape page where each cell is the same size and position as a vertical label. Type in the cells.[Label] Type
Select the size format that you want to use. The available formats depend on the brand on what you selected in the Brand list. If you want to use a custom label format, select [User], and then click the Format tab to define the format.
