Description
Use this function to automatically add rotated text to a pdf file previously created. This text can be added to all pages, or only the first page, based upon last parameter. Note: position parameters are in units that are exactly 1/72 inches per unit, which is approximately the same as a "point", a unit used in the printing industry. 25.4 millimetres is one inch.
