• In the Label Style dialog box, click the Label Style Offset tab.
  

• Select Force To Horizontal Justification if you do not want the label to rotate at all.
• To specify where the label is placed relative to the curve, select one of the following options:

  Offset option	Description
  Auto-Adjust for 2 Line	Use this option to adjust the label display for objects using a 2-line display configuration.
  Auto-Adjust for 1 Line	Use this option to adjust the label display for objects using a 1-line display configuration.
