When it comes to creating presentations, Microsoft Powerpoint is always the favorite of people. It offers a lot of scope of customizations for various types of projects. One of the simple tweaks that we will talk about in this guide is rotating the text. You can rotate the text for creating some cool design in a presentation.

You may rotate a text manually to any random degree. If you wish you can also turn the text in any direction at a fixed angle. Mostly, when you are creating a poster, to make it attractive you can align your text by rotating and resizing it. This guide aims to help those who are entirely new to the Microsoft Office Suite. So, creating a presentation will not be a hassle for them. Along with the regular horizontal text creating style, they can also rotate the text at any angle.
