Appendix E. Rotation Hints

Methods of Rotating Text Data

Figure 121 shows the methods in which text data can be rotated.

Figure 121. Rotation Hints

Note: Asterisks in the figure above indicate where text can be truncated on certain rotated pages if page length or page width values are not considered. Text can always be truncated on all output pages if line increment values force data to be greater than the page length.

General Rules

The general rules APU follows when rotating data are:

1.APU always attempts to create output in Portrait mode and attempts rotation based upon the page length and page width (orientation) of the original selected sample spool file.

2.When overriding input or default rotation values, use the following guidelines to avoid text truncation or object positioning problems.

v Specifying a rotation of 0 or 180 degrees, ensure the page length value is greater than the page width value.
