Using Get Measured Angle command
The Get Measured Angle button copies an angle value that was measured in Composer
to either the Absolute or Relative Angle field. Use the Measure Mode tool to set the
angle in Composer. The Get Measured Angle button in the Fit Text to Path dialog box

Slanting the text
There are two commands that allow you to slant the text.
The Vertical Skew command slants all text on the path so that the top and bottom of
each character are parallel to the path, while the character remains perpendicular in
relation to an imaginary horizontal baseline.
The Horizontal Skew command slants all text on the path so that the top and bottom of
each character are parallel in relation to an imaginary horizontal baseline while the letter
remains perpendicular to the path.
