I need to print sideways (landscape) on a page that otherwise contains portrait-oriented output. I know how to do this using HP's PCL with the printer's internal fonts when hand-coding a report, but I would like to be able to use the Report Designer.

Since the sideways printing is minimal (just some identifying information for printed forms that are filed sideways) I was thinking I could just use a sideways font (i.e. an otherwise normal font that's rotated 90 degrees) and align the output characters, one per text object, vertically down the edge of the page. The only problem is that I can't find such a font, and I would like to avoid having to use a font design package.

Anybody have any ideas? Thanks!
