Math symbols (\subseteq and \supseteq) are rotated and rendered successfully in text mode with the aid of \rotatebox{}{}.
In the commented section below, there is a problem with getting these symbols into the subfloat label. I'm using pdflatex
This is pdfTeX, Version 3.1415926-1.40.11 (Web2C 2010)
Any ideas? Thanks.
