I'd like to create a CD cover, but I'm not able to rotate the text so that it is readable on the side of the CD. What is the procedure for this action?

Follow this procedure:

  1. Click on the Text icon in the Tool bar (the left side bar).
  2. Draw a text box of the desired size on the document page and insert your text.
  3. Click outside the text box to finish the text insertion.
  4. Click with the left button on your text to select it again.
  5. Right click on the selected text box to display the context menu.

Apache OpenOffice is an effort undergoing incubation at The Apache Software Foundation (ASF), sponsored by the Apache Incubator. Incubation is required of all newly accepted projects until a further review indicates that the infrastructure, communications, and decision making process have stabilized in a manner consistent with other successful ASF projects. While incubation status is not necessarily a reflection of the completeness or stability of the code, it does indicate that the project has yet to be fully endorsed by the ASF.
