Friends mother is doing a table cloth in stitch craft, the pattern she is working from is shown as an L shape & it says to do the other half just reverse the pattern.
I have scanned the pattern & now need to flip it, what software is there out there to do that, or can in be done in one of the standard m/soft applications. I think I have all of them.
 
Using Microsoft PhotoEditor.
Current window...

< Image > < Rotate > < Mirror >

See roughly one half of image mirroring the other half - (split - vertical)

'Mirror' is the word in this case

I have Office 2007 - No Photo editor.
BUT, I copied the folder holding Photo-Editor from another machine running Office 2000, plonked them into my XP machine's 2nd HDD - the prog works same as normal !!
I think the prog has hidden depths...

The old trick with a paper pattern was a spot of something like paraffin on the paper to render it temporarily transparent - then just turn it over.

Used to use that on printed circuit drawings sometimes, when the board was drawn on one side of the sheet, and the component placements on the other

The paraffin will dry out, leaving the paper pretty much as it was.
