    What is the fix for jagged text on Rotate Text Up - Excel 2010, Windows 7

    I have a very good monitor and video card so I am confused and trying to fix my jagged text when I use any angled text.

    I just want to use Rotate Text Up and have my font appear "normal." I have tried numerous fonts and numerous sizes and they all look jagged.

    Thank you in advance.

    There is no fix; it's just poor rendering by Excel.

    Thanks shg, but please look at this screenshot of what I am trying to copy - it appears that they have successfully reduced the jagged font.

    Do you think they created this in PowerPoint or something else?

    Dunno. Powerpoint certainly renders better than Excel.

    You can do that yourself. The forum rules explain how.
