I have created a page in InDesign that I want to print onto a T-Shirt Transfer sheet. I am using a Epson 200 Printer. I need to flip the page so that everything is printed in reverse on the T-Shirt transfer sheet. That way when it's applied to the T-Shirt, it will print in a readable format rather than backwards.

Alright you gurus ... step forward. I could figure it out.

Help please.

Some printers have that as part of the print options if they can print transfers. Try telling the page to print and check the drop-down options to see if there is a specific transfer mode with reverse options.

Low tech answer for Calvin only...

1) Print it out normally

2) Iron it on the shirt

3) Turn shirt inside out and VOILA it reads the way you want it to!

Follow Jack's advice and see it the printer has that option.

Cal, I'm in InDesign 5.
I can't remember back that far in the app.
You might look through the Object menu,
Control Palette or the Help for Flipping the object.
If it is there.

Well you helped.

The word I was using was reverse. I should have searched help for FLIP.

I know, going back to 2.0 is a strecth for a dynamic person like you. But thanks for the assistance.

I don't normaly do desktop publishing so this was just a one pager that I tried to use the tool for.

I just can't imagine you ever LOLROTFLMAO.

Ciao Chita! Smile

It's happened a few times in my life.
I hope to do more of it, laughter is good for the soul.

I agree on the good for the soul. But looks like the clothes will get a little dusty!

Your demeanor and style keeps me from seeing you doing that though.

But most maniacs can hide that side of themselves.

Keep Smiling! Smile

I don't sweat that, that's what washing machines are for.

"Your demeanor and style keeps me from seeing you doing that though."

It's called self-control. Parents taught me manners.

EXCUSE ME!!! Eek

Now Now .... That was not to be taken offensively. But see... it's that demeanor of yours that tricked me up.

Man this is a hard stage to play.

I didn't take it offensively, but as a very BOLD presumption,
as I was LOLROTFLMAO. Wink
