Hi,


if I combine several curves in one plot I need to put some text next to
the curves. To avoid that the horizontal text intersects several curves
I would like to rotate the text at specific different angles. I searched
with groups.google.com but didn't find any answer. Anyhow, is it
possible?

Up to now I am using



pict1 = ListPlot[data1, PlotJoined -> True, PlotStyle ->
{Thickness[0.0025]},
    FrameStyle -> {Thickness[0.004]}, Frame -> True,
    FrameTicks -> {obenunten, rechtslinks, obenunten, rechtslinks},
    FrameLabel -> {" ..... ",  "....."}, RotateLabel -> True,
    PlotRange -> {{0., 2.001}, {.1, .7001}}, GridLines -> Automatic,
    AspectRatio -> .5, ImageSize -> {550, 400},
    DefaultFont -> {"Times-Bold", 14}, FormatType -> OutputForm,
    Epilog -> {Text["200 MHz", {0.23, 0.63}],
   Text["v = 0.04 m / nsec", {1.55, 0.35}],  Text["v = 0.10 m / nsec",
{1.23, 0.63 }]}]

pict6 = ListPlot[data6,....]

ois = Show[pict1,......,pict6]




Thanxs a lot for any help

Harry
