2. Then add the text in the **Text** field.

3. After that, go to the **Text Direction** tab and select the vertical text direction from the **Vertical Text** section. Here you’ll find three options - 

- **Normal** - This, will keep the text horizontally aligned.

- **Left to Right** - With this, the text will be aligned vertically from left to right for text with two or more words.
