Mirror flip text

Mirroring or flipping text may be necessary for decorating your Word document or for printing the text on fabric or parchment for further transfer.

Flipping text by 180 degrees changes the nature of the text, making it possible to read it only in a mirror, hence this is also known as mirroring.

Rotating a text by 180 degrees along the X-axis (around the Y-axis) causes a horizontal flip, while rotating it by 180 degrees along the Y-axis (around the X-axis) causes a vertical flip.

In both cases, the result produces a mirror image of the original—you need a mirror to read the text—with a different axis in each case.

Rotating the text in the X-Y plane (around the Z-axis) by any angle keeps the text readable always—a mirror is not necessary.

Word allows rotating text at different angles on any axis, provided you define the text by enclosing it in a text box.

When you flip the text by 180 degrees on a specific axis, you create a mirror image of the original text on that axis.

Word has a special name for such rotation—3D Rotation—on any of the three axes.
