Dear All,
I didn't seen the Vertical Text Tool there are only Normal Text and Text on the Path buttons, so I difficult to create the vertical text in the Text Frame, as per screen shot below.
Please advice me how to solve it.
Best regards,
There is no Vertical Text Tool in western language versions of InDesign.
See Where is the vertical type tool in InDesign CC 2014??? for workarounds!

Dear Dov,
Thank you for your information, unfortunately no Vertical Text Tool for all language, please add this Vertical Text Tool on the next InDesign Update... this Vertical Text Tool I think for the user very useful as they want to create a Cover Book or a DVD Case Cover with the Vertical Text for vertical area between left & side area, without import from Illustrator.
B/regards,

Like Mary1957 says, if there isn't one, why is it in the manual? Not exactly difficult to remove a reference...

One of many, many incorrectly or poorly written parts of the Help files. We've been complaining about it for years.

Holy hell Adobe. I can't believe this still isn't a feature after all these years.
I use ID & data merge for exporting mass amounts of signage at once (unit ids, etc) and sometimes the numerals are vertical.
Would love to see native support for vertical type.

Hi,
Can somebody give samples?!
Personally, I do it in 1 click!

So did you essentially just place a hard return after every character?
Will that code work with the english keyboard?

There is a Vertical Text tool in Illustrator. You could create what you want there.

Why on earth does the "help" page refer to a Vertical Type Tool in Indesign? Very, very confusing! Create text and text frames in InDesign

Hello, i think the best way is to go to the Indesign Uservoice to add this function
I made a post in the french forum about this
