I used the rotating package to rotate the symbol 90 positive degrees and that worked well. But I also want to rotate it 270 positive degrees and then it ends up hanging down on the line below. How can one rotate symbols any degree while it stays on the same line?

You can use \rotatebox
(from the graphicx
package) with the origin=c
option instead; a little example:
\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{graphicx}
\begin{document}
A\rotatebox{90}{B}C
A\rotatebox{270}{B}C
A\rotatebox[origin=c]{270}{B}C
\end{document}

I guess that the
90
inside of\rotatebox{90}
meansrotate 90°
counter-clockwise. The whole thing,\rotatebox{90}{B}
means "rotate the letter B 90°". It gives us something similar to the Unicode character ᗶ, which isU+15F6
or maybeU+15F7

\rotate{270}{B}
rotates the letterB
three quarter turns anti-clockwise?270°
is three times90°

You can also rotate the whole font like this:
\setCJKmainfont[Script=CJK,Vertical=RotatedGlyphs,BoldFont=KAIU.TTF,
ItalicFont=DFT_Z3.TTC,BoldItalicFont=DFT_L5.TTC,
SmallCapsFont=DFT_TX3.TTC]{HANAMINA.TTF}

1In English, what does that code do? For example, what is the fully spelled out English phrase for
CJK
inside ofScript=CJK
