How to angle text in Photoshop?

[Robert Darwent]

...they suggested duplicating the layer with the second lot of text in it, dump it on top and then use Free Transform to adjust, then Merge down.

You've basically just described the method I use and was referring to in my earlier post Andrew.

However, with all respect to his considerable abilities, I fear we may already have lost David with the terms used. The terminology is quite confusing and can be very off-putting.

For the meter scale David is trying to produce, the method described by Tony earlier is the simplest to follow and attempt, giving good acceptable results.
