I want to flip text to a mirror image to print on fabric transfer paper.

This didn't work for me (Word 2010, Win 7, 64 bit) but this does;

Enter Word art text as you wish, then

• select the text you wish to rotate
• the Drawing Tools, Format ribbon will show;

on this ribbon go to Wordart styles and left-click on "text effects"

• this brings up a sub-menu, hover over "3d rotation" and left click on "3D rotation options"
• select "X" and set it to "180"

-left-click "close" to action this on the selected text.

It's just a shame the "flip horizontal' command doesn't work on the text, just the bounding box...

After attempting over 2 hours to do a mirror image following the instructions from "You Tube", "avery.com", and articles from googling what I wanted to do, I came across your article.  Thank you so very much.  After I tweeked it , I was able to do a mirror image.  My "tweeks" included the following: 

Inserted Text Box (draw)

Formatted font (size, color, & style)

Under Drawing Tool>Format>I chose Shape Effects

Rolled over 3D Rotation to 3D Rotation Options (left clicked)

Choose "X" and changed to 180°

Left Click Fill & chose "No Fill" then  clicked "OK"

When I did not go to the "Fill" menu, the background of my text would be grey.

 Again, thank you very much.

Hi,

     Mirror image of the content can be obtained using the following steps.

1. Insert a WordArt and type in the content.
2. Now click on the WordArt.
3. Go to the “Format” tab under the contextual menu “WordArt Tools”.
4. Click the “Rotate à Flip Horizontal” option under “Arrange” section.

Hi, it is a lot simpler to create your design in any software (Word, Publisher etc...) and use the software your printer comes with, in the printing options you can just tick the "mirror image" option.
