   I'm developing an application that needs to plot
to a HP7475a plotter and needs to have text running
in both directions.  I have tried creating a font
with the Escapement set to 900 and a variety of other
parameters but always the text will get sent to the
screen correctly but all the text will plot in the
horizontal direction on the plotter.  Is this possible
(I know it can be done from dos)?
Thanks
