Hi,

I am producing a list report which needs vertical cloumn headers. I have had no trouble rotating these headers in HTML run output but the board want the report in pdf. and when i run it to pdf, the headers revert to normal, horizontal text.

can anyone help?

as per the above link, looks like it is available only for html output. For pdf, the only way I can think of is, when you get the vertical column header in html, take a printscreen of just the column title and save it as an image file, and then change the report to show this image in the column title instead of the text. Not sure if this is the best option. Experts please chime in.....
