Those Upside Down Fonts....

[wob]

There was a message running around last week about trying to find an upside down font....

I want one, because it's silly.

Has anyone got one, found one, created one?

Best you could do is set up a sheet of tall, narrow columns; setup landsacape mode, the width would be about 125% of the font height, the height would be as 'tall' as the sheet.

Format all cells with Orientation of 90 degrees. If you orient most in one 90 degree orientation, the few you orient in the other 90 degree direction will appear upside-down.

Even if you get an "upside down" font and use it in a spreadsheet you send to others, it will have no effect whatsoever if that particular font is not installed on the other user's machine. Just for reference

On the other hand, there is the "Menu Shenanigans" add-in from j-walk's file listing.

As for the font, I don't recall ever seeing one, but you could always check out some font sites like http://www.fontfreak.com or http://www.1001fonts.com
