I don't know what "vertical way" means... perhaps you want the text rotated by 90 degrees? or the letters arranged in a column like

t
h
i
s

? Anyway as you (should) know, FOP is simply an implementation of the XSL:FO standard. Here's a link to that standard; have a look through it to see if it supports anything like what you want.

Thank you for the reply paul , i have found a solution to rotate the text in vertical (90 degrees...) , we can embed the tag SVG


<fo:instream-foreign-object>
<svg:svg width="100px" height="100px" xmlns:svg="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg">
<svg:g>
<svg:text x="-80" y="20" transform="rotate(270)">Hello World</svg:text>
</svg:g>
</svg:svg>
</fo:instream-foreign-object>



Thanks
