Hi Stephen,
Somewhere you are setting a font type to be like 60 instead of 62.
In Root version 2.23 all axis titles, histogram titles, text
in TPaveLabels and TPaveTexts are drawn via TLatex objects unless
the font precision is 0. This has the big advantage that you can
draw complex Latex expressions in these objects.
In Root the convention for fonts is
10xfontNumber + precision
For example 62 means font 6 with precision 2.
If you have set somewhere a precision 0, then hardware fonts
are used instead of TLatex objects. These fonts are
non rotatable.
Check your fonts settings and use precision 2.
