Is there a way to mirror text, so that it will be backwards?

Only model text can be shown backwards. I can't imagine why anyone would want to show normal text backwards??

Why does it have to be text? Why not create an annotation where the double L's are simply lines and there is a parameter for the angle size? I created one for you to look at and attached it. It is in version 8.1, load it into your project, place it as a symbol and fill in the angle size parameter. You may need to tweak it to better resemble your office standard, but it should get the job done. HTH Tom

alternatively you could edit a font to include the backward L as a character... Program such as Fontlab's Typetool 2 is good at this... There is also one already built into the Arial font Alt+2518 & Alt+2514 Post edited on 2005-09-08 18:15:31
