How to rotate a written string with e.graphics ?

Hello.

Context : Windows Form, VB 2008.

I am printing a document using a PrintDocument and e.Graphics.

As some columns are narrow I would like to print their titles vertically,
like in Excel with a rotation of 90°. I guess it is something related to
Graphics.RotateTransform and Graphics.TranslateTransform but I do not
understand anything in the documentation.

Thank you for your help,
Gilbert
