Is there a way to rotate text 90 degrees in a table row or table cell?

Thanks,

    Are you using Arbortext FOSI composition, Arbortext Print Publishing composion or XSL-FO composition?

    PDF output, HTML output?

    FOSI for PDF output.

    What sort of file do I look for to add this entry to. Is it added to .style or is it done in a .fos?

    Peter's solution can be place in a .fos stylesheet.

    It can also be placed into a .style by using a FOSI source edit.

    Note: it is best to place source edits in property sets.

    That way an element can use the property set, but the element's condtions and/or contexts themselves do not contain the source edit. (Can reduce the complication of the source edit.)
