Hello TeXperts. Using DVIPS and rotate.tex I was able to rotate a table. But I
could not rotate the title (\caption) of the table. At the moment, the table is
in landscape mode but the caption comes as if it is portrait. i.e the title is
in one side of the table rather than above or below it. It looks very odd. I am
sure, some of you would have encountered this problem. Do you know or heard of
any solution to fix this (i.e., rotate the whole thing including the caption of
the table into landscape). If needed, I can send a simple sample file I got from
comp.text.tex. I tried a wild guess by putting the \caption also inside the
\hbox{ } but LaTeX complains about it. The error message is appended. If the
whole table \begin{table} ... \end{table} is put inside the \hbox also have the
same problem.
I would also like to know whether a fix, if available, is equally applicable for
Figures too. TaS in Advance.
