General ⇒ rotated text does not work

[Tijmen]

Rotate text does not work, the text is just displayed horizontally, this is what I did:

Code: Select all

\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{graphicx}

\begin{document}
\rotatebox{40}{%
because we \textbf{cannot} overwrite some other stuff.%
}
\end{document}

Any idea what chould be wrong?

Thanx

Note that you have to compile this code at least to PS or PDF, because some DVI viewers won't show the desired result. On Linux I can see the correct output with KDVI, KGhostview and KPDF.


Best regards
