Note:
To the top
1. Select the characters or type objects you want to change. If you don’t select any text, the scale applies to new text you create.
2. In the Character panel, set the Vertical Scaling option or the Horizontal Scaling option .
Rotate type
Do the following:
To rotate type, select the type layer and use any rotate command or the Free Transform command. For paragraph type, you can also
select the bounding box and use a handle to rotate the type manually.
To rotate multiple characters in vertical Asian text, use the tate-chu-yoko.

Rotate vertical type characters
When working with vertical type, you can rotate the direction of characters by 90°. Rotated characters appear upright; unrotated characters
appear sideways (perpendicular to the type line).
Original type (left) and type without vertical rotation (right)
1. Select the vertical type you want to rotate or unrotate.
2. Choose Standard Vertical Roman Alignment from the Character panel menu. A check mark indicates that the option is selected.
You cannot rotate double-byte characters (full-width characters available only in Chinese, Japanese, and Korean fonts). Any
double-byte characters in the selected range will not be rotated.
Change the orientation of a type layer
The orientation of a type layer determines the direction of type lines in relation to the document window (for point type) or the bounding box
(for paragraph type). When a type layer is vertical, the type flows up and down; when a type layer is horizontal, the type flows from left to right.
Don’t confuse the orientation of a type layer with the direction of characters in a type line.
1. Select the type layer in the Layers panel.
2. Do one of the following:
Select a type tool, and click the Text Orientation button in the options bar.
Choose Layer > Type > Horizontal, or choose Layer > Type > Vertical.
