Hi,
I'm trying to get the content within the columns of a twocolumn document
rotated by 90 degrees. The document goes like this:
\documentclass[10pt, twocolumn]{article}
\usepackage[utf8]{inputenc}
\usepackage[paperwidth=86mm, paperheight=83mm, top=2mm, bottom=2mm,
left=2.5mm, right=2.5mm]{geometry}
\usepackage{pst-barcode}
\setlength{\columnsep}{3mm}
\setlength{\parindent}{0pt}
\begin{document}
\par foo bar text
\vspace{0.3in} \par asdf laskfsd \psbarcode{content of
qrcode}{height=0.35 width=0.35}{qrcode}
\par {\bf asdf, xcas}
\newpage
\par foo bar text
\vspace{0.3in} \par asdf laskfsd \psbarcode{content of
qrcode}{height=0.35 width=0.35}{qrcode}
\par {\bf asdf, xcas}
\end{document}
The "paper" printed on is labels, i. e. two lables side by side. Each
page spans two labels, hence each column is printed onto one label.
That makes for rather high, while narrow, labels. I would like to
rotate the content of each column by 90 degrees. This would make the
label wide and not too high: The physical label can be rotated
physically when attaching it to something.
So far, I have tried the 'rotating' and 'scape' package, without succes:
It's possible to get a rotation by some angle, like 45 degrees, but
not 90.
