Thanks Chris.  Good to know it's fixed in 1769.  Just have to wait for the patch version to be published as apposed to the uninstall and reinstall route. I hope.

Interesting.  After downloading and installing 1769, the problem persisted.  He wanted the text to write downward. I helped him do some testing and discovered NativePDF does not like negative numbers for the escapement value.  (eg -900)   So setting them to 2700 gave the rotation he wanted, but the positioning of the text was off (pivots around a different point? ).  So, Distilled accepts negative numbers, NativePDF does not. Yet.  While there is a simple workaround. Still could be considered a "bug".  Especially for those migrating existing apps and moving away from Distillers and wanting to use the NativePDF.
