You could create a new table with text in landscape orientation: create a table,
select some table cells (not the whole table, unfortunately), right-click, and
select Text Direction. Choose the appropriate orientation. Paste text into the
table--cell by cell, probably--or re-type.
Hey, you didn't ask specifically for an EASY way to accomplish this! ;)
