CAP_PRINTERCHARROTATION

Description

Specify the angle of rotation of individual characters within the string to be printed by the current printer.

A value of 0 specifies that if you hold a document with the feed edge on the left and the printed text facing you, characters are upright. A non-zero value specifies character rotation clockwise from that orientation, in degrees.

Note: This does not control the rotation or angle of the printed string. TWAIN does not offer that capability. Individual characters are rotated in-place. Many scanners will support only a single value for this capability, or a few multiples of 90

Application

Specify the printer's font orientation for string or strings that will be printed on the page during the next acquisition.
