I've tried everything- even Emailing Microsoft. I have windows XP
and cannot figure out HOW to set a photo or etc. to print in "mirror
image". I am ironing on logos to cotton Tee-shirts. Can you help me,
please ??????????? Thanx. Vic's

This isn't something that Windows XP or Word handles. It may be something
your printer's driver can do. Open the Print dialog, click the Properties
button next to the printer's name, and look through the options it offers.
You're looking for something (a checkbox, a dropdown, etc.) labeled
"T-shirt" or "iron-on" or "flip" or some similar term. It may help to read
the printer's documentation, if you have any.

The alternative is to use a graphics program such as IrfanView
(www.irfanview) or Microsoft Paint. Such programs usually have a "flip
horizontal" tool.

I think it can be done manually:
* insert a picture
* convert it to be in front of text
* drag the left side of the picture over the right side
* rmb clink on the image
* uncheck lock aspect ratio
* set with of picture to be original size width
* picture has flipped over
