FitRotatedTextBoxA
Text, Page layout
Description
The trailing A denotes the ANSI (char) DLL entry point; the ActiveX/COM surface exposes only the Unicode form. Behaviour is identical to FitRotatedTextBox and string arguments are interpreted using the current SetAnsiMode code page
Similar to the FitTextBox function, but the angle of the box can be rotated by any angle. The text size is adjusted to ensure that all the text fits into the available space. The top-left corner of the box before it is rotated is used as the rotation point.

Delphi
Function DLFitRotatedTextBoxA(InstanceID: Integer; Left, Top, Width, Height, Angle: Double; Text: PAnsiChar; Options: Integer): Integer;DLL
int DLFitRotatedTextBoxA(int InstanceID, double Left, double Top, double Width, double Height, double Angle, const char * Text, int Options);Parameters
