Paj! Posted December 15, 2008 Share Posted December 15, 2008 Sorry, this topic can be deleted after my question is answered, but I urgently need to know how to type backwards! It's for art, so that when I print a sheet of large writing out, if i rub a wet sponge on the back, it'll come out faded on a sketchbook page, but the right way round. So does anyone know how I can write letters that are reversed?! Thanks! N.B, I'm on a Mac, if that makes any difference..? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dazzybee Posted December 15, 2008 Share Posted December 15, 2008 Erm, I'm sure there's a technique, but what I would do is write on acetate in marker pen whatever you wanted to write, then flip it over and trace with a normal sheet! If it needs to be printed then surely an art package (even a basic one) could do that easy!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Klimop Posted December 15, 2008 Share Posted December 15, 2008 Do you have; Indesign; Illustrator; Photoshop? In that case => flip (canvas) horizontally I just saw you can also do this in preview (so with images/pdffiles) => tools => flip horizontally Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LazyBoy Posted December 15, 2008 Share Posted December 15, 2008 Type it out, screencap it (using grab, spotlight search) open in preview and flip it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paj! Posted December 15, 2008 Author Share Posted December 15, 2008 D'oh! Of course. I have GIMP, and yeah, I just flipped it round in that. Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ReZourceman Posted December 16, 2008 Share Posted December 16, 2008 If I were you I'd be flipping out at how silly I'd been. *Snigger* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Molly Posted December 16, 2008 Share Posted December 16, 2008 I had to spell 'Dandelion' backwards whilst playing Cranium last night, was a bit challenging under pressure but I got it. [/a bit related] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
