The angle represents the offset from 90 degrees.
Entering a value between -85 and 85 makes the text oblique. A positive
obliquing angle slants text to the right. A negative obliquing angle slants text
to the left.
To set the obliquing angle in a text style
1 From the Format menu, choose Text Style.
2 In the Text Style dialog box, select a text style from the Style Name list.
3 Under Effects, enter an angle in the Oblique Angle box.
A positive value slants text to the right. A negative value slants text to the
left.
