Mirror Images - suggestion.

Occasionally, an image is encountered which is a mirror image and very difficult to read.

Here's a suggestion:

One way to view a mirror image in Windows without changing the original image is to place your cursor within the image

1. Type Alt+Prnt Scrn. This places the image on the clipboard.

2. Switch to Microsoft Paint and press Ctrl+V. This creates a Paint copy of the screen.

3. Press Ctrl+R and click on OK button. This creates a "flipped" Paint copy of the image which can be easily read.

4. Return to the keying tool and key the information seen and save it.

5. Return to Paint and press the Delete key to clear the Paint Screen to allow a return to Step 1 for the next mirror image. If there is no mirror image, close the Paint program and return to keying.

It is unnecessary to save the Paint image.
