    If the vector/ pixel based (rastor) files are of concern, then you should do it in inDesign or Illustrator as suggested. If not, photoshop is fine. As mentioned, the free transform (cmd T -keyboard shortcut) will allow you to rotate the text to the sideways position you want. While you are doing this, if you hold down the shift key it will help you position the text perfectly at 90 degrees. Added bonus, change the opacity in layers palette/window to make it a bit less distracting to the image while still maintaining the credit. Could also add a layer style.. even cooler.

    Hi, new to ‘the cow’ thought i’d take a shot and re-phrase what someone else already suggested. I’ve had a lot of cross platform experience and I can’t tell you how many times I’ll save a .jpg file on a mac and have it simply vanish when it gets onto my pc. It’s definitely been saved as a .jpg. I’m not sure what is causing it but it only happens sometimes. I can copy a whole bunch of files and only one or two of them will lose their file extension. It’s not a problem for me as I just add them on in windows but… I would suggest emailing (in the same way) yourself or a colleague/ friend who has a pc (possibly using a same account type (ex. if your client is using a gmail vs. yahoo etc..) or is it a corporate email ? It could be a problem with the email system. Good luck.

    Thanks very much… High School Media Teacher, multiple Macs (tiger and snow leopard- mac pros, imacs, emacs) and PCs
