Rotation text in document

[Dondigidol]

Hello! I not found such opportunities. Is it possible to rotate the text in documents to 90 degrees?

You'll need to be more specific. Do you mean making the page landscape rather than portrait?

I added a table into document. In the cell(0,0) of this table can i insert text, with rotation by 90 degrees?

import docx, os from docx.api import Document

doc = Document() tab = doc.add_table(2, 15) tab.style = 'Table Grid'

tab.cell(1,0).merge(tab.cell(0,0)) tab.cell(1,1).merge(tab.cell(0,1)) tab.cell(1,2).merge(tab.cell(0,2)) tab.cell(1,3).merge(tab.cell(0,3)) tab.cell(1,4).merge(tab.cell(0,4))

tab.cell(1,8).merge(tab.cell(0,8)) tab.cell(1,9).merge(tab.cell(0,9)) tab.cell(1,10).merge(tab.cell(0,10)) tab.cell(1,11).merge(tab.cell(0,11)) tab.cell(1,12).merge(tab.cell(0,12)) tab.cell(1,13).merge(tab.cell(0,13)) tab.cell(1,14).merge(tab.cell(0,14))

tabhead = tab.cell(0,0) tabhead.text = 'Example table header'

doc.save('Examp.docx')

Any updates on this? Looking to change the text direction in the table cell as well.

No.

In response to your request regarding the need to implement text rotation in a cell, I would like to share the solution to this task that I have obtained.

import docx
from lxml import etree
from docx.shared import Inches

def rotate_text_in_cell(cell):
    tcPr = cell._element.find(
        "./w:tcPr",
        namespaces={
            "w": "http://schemas.openxmlformats.org/wordprocessingml/2006/main"
        },
    )
    tcW = tcPr.find(
        "./w:tcW",
        namespaces={
            "w": "http://schemas.openxmlformats.org/wordprocessingml/2006/main"
        },
    )
    tcW.set("{http://schemas.openxmlformats.org/wordprocessingml/2006/main}w", "4672")
    etree.SubElement(
        tcPr,
        "{http://schemas.openxmlformats.org/wordprocessingml/2006/main}textDirection",
        attrib={
            "{http://schemas.openxmlformats.org/wordprocessingml/2006/main}val": "btLr"
        },
    )

document = docx.Document()

table = document.add_table(rows=5, cols=3)

row_cells = table.rows[0].cells
row_cells[0].text = "Name"
row_cells[1].text = "Age"
row_cells[2].text = "City"

for row in range(1, 5):
    row_cells = table.rows[row].cells
    row_cells[0].text = f"Name {row}"
    row_cells[1].text = str(20 + row)
    row_cells[2].text = f"City {row}"

for table in document.tables:
    for index, row in enumerate(table.rows):

        if index == 0:
            row.height = Inches(0.5)
            for cell in row.cells:
                rotate_text_in_cell(cell)
        else:
            row.height = Inches(0.1)

document.save("test1.docx")
