Re: Fwd: <rotate degrees="90"/>

Hi,

We'd like to help, but we're not sure what to do what the info you've sent us.
Is it a document?  I guess it's a PDF document (because that's what
reportlab produces), but I guess it's not a whole PDF document.

Also, you haven't said what the problem is.  I mean, you gave some document
fragments, but you didn't say how they actually render and what you expected.
Ok, we can guess you expected it (or part of it) to be rotated by 90 degrees.
Did that section show at all?  Was it removed from the document?  Was it
rotated the wrong way?  Did it show up in the document in the wrong place?

The best way to get help is to make a minimal document that demonstrates
the problem, and send the reportlab code that generated it to the list so we
can reproduce the problem ourselves.  A description of what went wrong is also
helpful, and/or a small screenshot of what it looks like when you render it.
Other useful info for helping with the debug effort is what version of
reportlab you're using and what platform you're using it on (what version of
python, what Operating System).  You might also mention what viewer you
are using and its version number.  Have you tried looking at it with more
than one viewer?
