You can also make a singe column field with a letter per line

L
I
K
E
T
H
I
S

Va
Ri
At
Io
Ns

Are also possible but cost more... ;)

You can even parse multicolumns like these using the tabstops to title thin
columns in a table...

Playing with the textsize prop can also give you better look.

Diagonal text anyone?

OK, im on a roll...

Type your text in a field, format it, snapshot it, insert in image, then
rotate...
It's scriptable too!

Example script: left as an exercise! ;)

Cheers
