How To Print Mirror Image Text In Word
After you insert your Text box (and type in desired text), click on the “Drawing Tools Format” tab up top. (Make sure you are clicked on the text box or this option won’t appear; this holds true for all the following steps.) 2. My text box automatically added a outline around it for some reason. Open the image, click File, click Print, and then click Show Details, if necessary, to view print dialog settings. Click the unnamed print options menu at the center of the window, and then select Layout.
How do I create a Microsoft Word half page template that mirrors my entry on the top into the bottom?
Yes, I could just only print to 1/2 the page and turn it around and print it again, but I'm trying to make sure how it will look with both printed on the page at the same time.
Alternately I am considering a table with the individual cells set to the size that I want the individual parts of the document to look and manual copy and paste.
Office 2010 in this case, I'm not sure what, if any, this would apply to previous versions.

I may have just stumbled upon the answer I wanted:
Under Page Layout -> Margins -> Custom Margins -> Multiple Pages -> 2 Per Sheet and set all the margins to 0.75 (as that's what I wanted personally) and that seems to do the trick.

If you only have one page of text in your document (that is, printing only fills half of one page), then you also need to enter '1,1' in the Pages field when you print. This is the field where you would normally, enter the page numbers you want to print, IE: '2-10'. This tells Word to DUPLICATE the first page (which is really half a page) on the lower half of the printed page.

- Open the WordPerfect document that contains the text you wish to reflect in a mirror image.
- Scroll to the document location that contains the text. Ensure that the full body of the text is viewable on-screen and does not require further scrolling.
- Press the 'Alt' button on the keyboard. While holding this down, press the 'Print Screen' button. Nothing will happen, but the on-screen image of the Word Perfect text is temporarily stored in the Windows clipboard memory.
- Open the Windows 'Paint' program. This is a free graphics editing program included in all versions of Windows. It is available from the Start menu, in the Programs folder under 'Accessories.'
- Click inside the blank Paint screen. Press the 'Control' button on your keyboard. While holding down this button, press the 'V' key. The Word Perfect text content is imported into Paint.
- Click the 'Image' menu at the top of the Paint program menu. Select the 'Flip/Rotate' command.
- Choose 'Flip horizontal' or 'Flip vertical' to create a mirror image. The selections vary in the placement of the image along left or bottom axis. Press the 'OK' button when you have made the selection. The WordPerfect text is now a mirror image of what it was before.
- Save the image using the 'File' menu. The image is now available for use in any other program, or in the original Word Perfect document. Import the picture if desired.
