Default Help with Typing for mirror image

I'm trying to make an iron on decal for a tee shirt and need to create the type so that it is a mirror image. That is, the letters need to be inverted so that they iron on correctly. I am on a Mac and use Photoshop v.8 and am a NOVICE. Is there anyone out there who can help? Thanks.

I'm not 100% sure if this will work in v8 but try typing your text out and then going to Edit>Transform>Flip Horizontal. This works on CS2 so hopefully it will work for you too.

Default Yup... that's it.

that's the way to do it.

Just make sure you are conscience of your 'stacking order' in case you have color fills, or a white backing. In that case, they'll have to be done in reverse order.

But basically, Goose got it.
