Steps to Rotate Text in Adobe Acrobat using Java

1. Configure your project to add Aspose.PDF for Java for adding rotated text
2. Instantiate a new document and add a default page to it
3. Create a TextFragment class object by setting the text phrase to be rotated
4. Set the text position, font, and rotation angle using relevant properties in the TextFragment object
5. Instantiate a TextBuilder class object using the target page
6. Append the text fragment and save the resultant PDF file
