I couldn't find a solution to reversing the text direction without enabling the 'Middle Eastern and South Asian' type option in the preferences so its possible but not pretty.

Also not pretty is skewing the text, the below works but I wouldn't say it was a practical solution for numerous images...anyway...this is how I would skew the text:

1. Create a rectangular path using the 'Rectangle' tool set to PATH.

2. Using the 'Horizontal Type' tool click within the PATH to start the text.

Type your text but just one letter per line....so letter then 'Enter', letter then 'Enter'...repeat.

This will create 'pseudo' vertical text.

3. In the 'Paragraph' panel make sure the text is RIGHT justified.

4. Using the 'Direct Selection' Tool select the top two anchor points of the PATH.

5. Move them to the right.

Like I said its not pretty but it works..... it may put someone on the path to a neater solution.
