Abstract
A word processor with capability of printing characters in rotated orientations as well as in the normal upright orientation is so programmed that characters appearing inside a specified reference area on its display device can be printed not only in a rotated orientation but also at a new position which is symmetric from its original position such that a character arrangement, for example, for describing a seating arrangement as seen in one direction can be automatically converted into another character arrangement corresponding to the same seating arrangement but as seen in another direction.
