Re: Rotating cell text in an rml template

 

I've done more than a quick skim, and I haven't found any rotation
capability for anything related to text.  I was beginning to consider
making the headings into a graphic in some graphics tool and then
using the graphics on the page, but that would mean text was
untranslatable.
