XTransform Object    

Represents a world space transform.

When first created the object defaults to the identity - no transformation.

A world space transform is not same an object transform. If you specify a rotation of 45 degrees you are rotating yourself rather than the object. So if you wish to insert text rotated by 45 degrees you should specify a world space transform rotation of minus 45 degrees.
