What are the differences between rotating text using PDF_fit_textline() and the rotate() function in PHP?

Rotating text using PDF_fit_textline() in PDFlib requires specifying the rotation angle in degrees as a parameter. On the other hand, the rotate() function in PHP is used to rotate the entire PDF page, including all elements on it. To rotate text specifically using PHP, you can use the rotate() function in combination with the text() function to draw text at a specific angle. 

// Rotating text using PDF_fit_textline()
PDF_fit_textline($p, "Rotated Text", 50, 50, "angle=45");

// Rotating text using PHP rotate() function
$pdf = new FPDF();
$pdf->AddPage();
$pdf->SetFont('Arial','B',16);
$pdf->Rotate(45);
$pdf->Text(50,50,'Rotated Text');
$pdf->Rotate(0);
$pdf->Output();
