[OPEN-ILS-GENERAL] Printing vertical rotated text through hatch

[Chris Burton]

<div style="font-size: 40pt; font-wieght: bold; width: 45px; margin-left:
120px; overflow-wrap: break-word; text-transform: uppercase;">
  </div>

We Use this div for our vertical text. We basically inflate the size to
have 1 character take the full width and use 'overflow-wrap: break-word' to
allow the characters to break off. It isn't pretty, but it works for us! We
print our Hold Shelf Slips daily with it.
