tilting photos

I am trying to print a page containing no text, just 4 photos, one of which needs to tilt about 30 degrees, without cropping. Is there any way to rotate photos? Thanks!

Welcome to the forum!

Tilting photos is very straightforward: Select the photo, then in the Inspector's Metrics palette, use the Rotate option.

Even easier:

Select the photo. Hold down the ⌘ key while clicking on a corner box of the photo. When the arrows appear drag up or down to rotate the photo.

Pages even tells you the degrees of rotation as you are doing this.

It is one of those super cool features. Ranks right up there with the alignment lines that appear automagically while you are moving objects around.
