[scribus] book cover spine

[Cliffe Connor]

Greg,
Thank you for getting back to me. I've found the properties palette and the
rotation section. Can you tell me step by step what to do next? I can see
that the text box can be rotated, but when I type into it, it still has the
text going in the wrong direction!
Help!
Thanks,
Cliffe
