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.
6. From the context menu choose: Position and Size.
7. Under the Rotation tab, select the desired Pivot Point and Rotation Angle.
8. Click the OK button.
