Does anyone know of a way to produce rotated text in LaTeX?  I am
drawing pictures using the picture environment and would like to
create labels using text rotated 90 degrees counterclockwise instead
of using \shortstack.

its easy enuf, if you use a PostScript printer. my `rotating.sty' LaTeX style option implements it all for you, but only works with a PS printer and either dvips or dvitops (what else would one use :-}?).

all in [tex-archive.latex.contrib.rotating] in the UK TeX Archive
