How to print a Word doc mirror image on MacBook Pro

I printed to PDF, then opened in Preview. However, under Tools the options "Flip Horizontally" and "Flip Vertically" are grayed out.

Hi piaf,


Those options are greyed out because they are only available for images.


What you can do is the following:


  1. Open the .pdf document you wish to "flip"
  2. From the menubar select File->Export
  3. In the Format drop down menu select JPEG
  4. Save the file


If you now open that file you will be able to flip both horizontally and vertically.
