Thanks to all that shared their knowledge!

Original post:
A colleague and I are trying to find an easy solution to a problem...

I'm trying to print spine labels on the Demco 6x4 option. When it prints,
the text is orientated in such a way that when it prints out I have to put
the spine label going up the book the long way (an inch and a half),
instead of the narrow way where it wraps around the sides of the book.  

Is there anyway to rotate the text without rotating the whole page??? I'm
ready to scream!!!! I've already tried calling the Follet help desk and
the guy on the line is no help at all. If I unclick the Auto-Rotate and
center option, the text stays rotated, but not aligned to the page.

I do not want to have to hand type all of these labels out on Barcode
Anything!


any help would be greatly appreciated! 

Responses:
Kelly - so ironic! If I understand your posting correctly, you are
printing 
labels the way that I would like to and I'm the one typing to get them to 
run parallel to the spince rather than wrap around. I do it to be able to 
see the whole number without pulling the book out. I haven't even tried 
printing labels, I just type them. Sorry I couldn't help, though.

 I can't help you with this particular problem, but have you ever looked
into getting a DYMO LabelWriter? I have two, one for spine labels (you can
get any size you want), and one for barcodes. I don't know what I ever did
without them!

Dear Jennifer,
 
Have you tried to go under page setup and rotate the page?  It should stay
lined up and print the correct way.  Have you changed your printer
settings to labels?
 
Hope this helps,
