TEXT NEEDS TO BE MIRROR IMAGE OR FLIPPED HORIZONTALLY...WHEN THE TRANSFER IS
IRONED ON THE TEXT WILL BE CORRECT AND READABLE.

THANKS FOR YOUR HELP.....

I don't know if the label printing option allows images, but if so you
could ...

1. Create a textbox and enter the text.
2. Copy the picture, then from the Edit menu select Paste Special.
3. Paste the textbox as a picture (various formats*).
4. From the Drawing toolbar (you may need to enable it), select Draw =>
Rotate or Flip => Flip Horizontal.

Note on the picture formats: You may want to play around with the font
type and picture paste format to see which one comes out the clearest.
Both the paste andf flip operations can add some noise to the text.

Although, as Nick suggests, there are ways to do this graphically, Word does
not natively support flipped text (except WordArt); ordinarily this function
is handled by your printer. Check to see whether the printer Properties
include a check box for "Flip horizontal," "Mirror image," "T-shirt
transfer," or the like.
