Remember that holding down Shift will help keep it vertical as you drag or click. Draw a vertical path with the Line tool (or Pen tool).Option two saves you from adding all those extra space characters: Use text on a path: That way, the text automatically stretches the entire height of the frame. The trick to getting good spacing between all the letters here is to open Object > Text Frame Options (Command/Ctrl-B) and choose Justify from the Align popup menu. Remember that if you can’t see the text in your narrow, vertical text frame, you can always select the frame and choose Edit > Edit in Story Editor (Command/Ctrl-Y) to view the text. First, you can get the effect you want by placing a space character between every character in the text. But there are three ways to achieve vertical text in InDesign. Yes, InDesign really doesn’t like breaking up words into individual characters. But InDesign will not break the words as XPress does. We used to use a textbox with narrow columns, where each column holds only one character. As our crossword magazines are moving from QuarkXPress to InDesign, I found out that you can’t write the crossword solutions the same way in InDesign as we did in XPress.
