Hello Jerry, There are a few approaches you can try using. If you have a printer that supports mirror imaging you can use the printer driver options, and if you have Word 2010 you can apply it through text effects or word art. Here is some info for using these methods.
You can usually apply mirror imaging through your printer driver options. Use CTRL+P to open the print dialog box. Tab to the "printer options button and use spacebar. Printers that support mirror imaging can have the option in different pages of the dialog box. The printer that I am currently using has a "Finishing" tab and there is a checkbox for applying mirror imaging. If you tab to the page tabs and check through the options for each page in the dialog box you should find it if your printer supports mirror imaging. You can use CTRL+tab key to switch dialog box pages or use the tab key to move to the page tabs and then use right and left arrow keys to move between the page tabs. Use the tab key through each page to check for the option. You might also want to use the JAWS cursor to make sure you don't miss the option. With some printers, if you find the postscript option and press enter key to expand it, there will be an option for using mirror imaging. In Word 2010, mirror imaging can be applied through use of text effects. 1. Select the text to which you want to apply the mirror imaging. 2. Press H followed by F followed by T followed by R followed by R. 3. Tab to a list box, which should have the "reflection" option selected. If a different option is selected then use up or down arrow key until you get to the Reflection option. 4. Tab to a presets drop-down grid and press enter key to use the built-in presets. 5. You will find presets for tight reflection, half reflection and full reflection and each of those presets with options for touching, using 4 PT offset and using 8 PT offset. Tab to the various choices and press enter on your selection. 6. Use tab or shift+tab to the close button and press spacebar. If you want to customize the effect instead of using the presets you can use steps 1 and 2 above, and then tab to the right and left sliders for adjusting such things as transparency, blur, and distance. Use arrow keys to adjust percentages in those sliders. You can also apply text effects in Word 2010 using Word Art. However, the text is entered as an object. Use Alt followed by N followed by W to move into the word art. Such things as style, font size and color, etc. are built into the word art objects. Use arrow keys around the choices and press enter when you find one to use. You can find some with reflection as part of the name. You need to use CTRL+Shift+O to select the object once it has been inserted. You can then change font type, color, etc. using regular font options found under the Home tab. However, using the text effects method mentioned earlier is likely easier. Take care.

I know that there are some programs such as WordArt and ClipArt for doing something like this. Thanks.
