I know the technique to rotate the text by an angle and here it is: Click the object that you want to rotate. Click the rotation handle at the top of the object, and then drag in the direction that you want. Step 1, Open Microsoft Word. Double-click a Word document that you want to edit, or double-click the Word app icon and click Blank document to open a new document. On the Mac version of Microsoft Word, you may not need to click Blank document.Step 2, Click Insert. It's a tab in the blue ribbon that's at the top of the Word window. The Insert toolbar will appear.Step 3, Click Text Box. This option is in the 'Text' section of the Insert toolbar. A drop-down menu will appear.

Making table cards, also known as table tents or place cards, in Microsoft Word is an ideal way to give guests a personal guide to their seating arrangements, but Word isn’t completely user friendly with text layout. Word doesn’t automatically give you a way to rotate text on the page, but with a quick workaround text box, you can angle your table card text to your exact preferred degree. Rotating text for any purpose in Word always requires putting it inside a container, but your table card readers will be none the wiser.
1.Launch Microsoft Word. Click the “File” tab. Click “Open.” Browse to the saved table card document file with the text to rotate. Double-click the document file name.
2.Scroll to the section of the document with the text to rotate. Click the “Insert” tab at the top of the workspace.
3.Click the small arrow on the Text Box button and select “Draw Text Box.” When the cursor turns into a plus sign, draw a text box on the Word document. It does not need to be the same size as the text to rotate; you can change the size in a later step.
4.Highlight the text on the Word document. Right-click the text and select “Cut.”
5.Click inside the text box. Right-click and select “Paste.” The text is now in the text box.
6.Click the border of the text box, which by default is black with a white fill. The new orange Text Box Tools tab appears. Click the “Shape Outline” button on the Ribbon and choose “No Outline.” Click the “Shape Fill” button and select “No Fill.” Your text is still inside a text box, but these choices made the box invisible.
7.Click the text. A small green dot appears in the center of the invisible text box. Hover the cursor over the dot and the cursor turns into the rotate symbol. Click and twirl the cursor to rotate the text.
Tip
- If you don’t already have a document with text in it, just open Word and create a new document. Instead of copying and pasting the current document’s text, type into the text box after creating it. The rest of the instructions are the same, though you may want to format the default Word page size to a table card size by clicking the “Page Layout” tab and then clicking the “Size” button.
