Title: Vertical text in DC
Post by: Petroizki on April 25, 2005, 01:10:32 PM
How can i draw text vertically to my device context (bottom to up)? I know that with TextOut i can write horizontal text, but that doesn't help me. Do i really have to use bitmaps for this.. Is there a way to "rotate" the DC, so that i could use TextOut?

I'm currently working on a program, that prints forms that include text both horizontally and vertically.

Use "CreateFont" and you can have text at any angle you like :bg
