Reverse or mirror image & resize

Working in photoshop elements I am wanting to print some pictures to then iron on fabric. I can not seem to find a command or anything in the menus that will execute this. Is there a way to have PSE reverse or mirror an image before I print it? If I have to use the layering and create an entirely new picture, can anyone explain to me how that is done?
Also I am trying to resize some of my pics. I have used the menu to choose resize>5x7, but when I print the picture it prints a 5x6. Any suggestions as to what I might need to do? Is it possible that my original just doesn't lend itself to being sized as a 5x7?
Any help or suggestions anyone can give me would be really appreciated.
Thank You,
Kaye

Kaye,
To answer your first question, do Image>Rotate>Flip Layer Horizontal.
To answer the second, try cropping the image instead: Select the Crop tool and set Width & Height to 5 & 7. Draw out the 5 X 7 rectangle, use the mouse or arrow keys to position the crop area, and click the Commit button (or Enter key).
Another way is to use the Rectangular Marquee tool: set Style to Fixed Size, enter Width & Height, click on the picture to get the rectangle, use the mouse or arrow keys to position the crop area, and Image>Crop.

  • How do I print as a "reverse or mirror image" on the HP Officejet Pro 8600 model # N911a

    How do I  print as a "reverse or mirror image" on the HP Officejet Pro 8600 model # N911a

    I have spent hours figuring out how to print a t-shirt transfer since my new HP printer doesn't seem to allow for mirror image printing (yet my old HP printer easily let me select this feature).   Here's what worked for me, using Word 2010:
    Create the text and insert any images  into the document as you normally would.
    Go to Insert / WordArt and chose a style of lettering (I don’t think it matters what you choose since you will be cutting and pasting the data from 1 above).   A text box will appear and a new "double-decker" tab will appear at the right (Drawing Tools on top and Format below).
    Copy what you created in step 1 and paste it into the text box.
    Click on the Format tab (the cursor must be inside the text box for the Format tab to be visible).
    Choose Text Effects / 3-D Options and then 3-D Rotation Options.  A dialogue box will open.  For the X value, enter 180.  Do not enter anything for the other values.  Your image should have rotated to mirror image.
    Click Close and save your document.
    You should now be able to print your document as usual.
    Good luck!

  • What software besides iGlasses can reverse the mirror image in iChat?

    I'm trying to use iChat to stream video of multiple animators and artists around the country looking at each others drawings, instructions, & messages and settings on their computer screens. The iSight cam's mirrored image produces everything backwards - eCamm.com's software, iGlasses, thankfully, reverses the mirror image making it possible for our artists to read each other's instructions. Unfortunately, the iSight cam's quality is not good enough to read the small type on their computer screens. We can use more expensive video camera's with firewire connections, but iGlasses isn't compatible. Is there any other software we can use besides iChat so we can read each others screens and data using more expensive cams and not having to read everything backwards? Probably a unique need but any help much appreciated.

    Thanks, Bill. This is a very cool alternative that I never knew about. We'll try it out for sure. We're also trying Apple Remote Access and other VNC software to acccess the various computer screens, as hosts and clients, but so far haven't succeeded. • • Also, we need to see video streams of the artists drawing on paper while they're drawing. So we still need a high quality video conference set up for fine detail. Again, Thanks!

  • Change object view to reverse or mirror image to itself

    I am using Illustrator CS3 and have Windows XP. I have a vector object that I would like to flip over,or see the mirror image of it. How do you do that?
    Doug

    If you mean you want to see a mirrored image of the object as you draw and manipulate it, you can do that using the live effect found in:
    Object>Distort&Transform>Transform. In the dialog, enter 1 for Copies, and turn on the Reflect X checkbox. Set other options (horizontal or vertical move distance, proxy box handle point, etc.) as desired.
    Another method:
    1. Select the object. Symbols Palette flyout menu: New Symbol. In the resulting dialog, select Graphic and click OK. The object is now a Symbol Instance.
    2. AltDrag the object to make a copy of it. Use the Reflect Tool to flip it horizontally or vertically, as explained in Post 1.
    3. DoubleClick either of the object's Instances on the page. That puts the Symbol in Isolation mode. Edit the artwork as desired. When done, rightClick it and select Exit Isolation Mode. All other Instances of the Symbol update accordingly.

  • My iphone 3 GS shows mirror image i.e backward/reversed text when switched on or woken up ?  Any explanations or solutions?

    Hi, my i-phone 3GS suddenly started showing all text in reverse or mirror image when it wakes or is switched on.  By toggling the on/off swtich it may revert to normal eventually but it takes time.   Problem is recurrent for 3 days and makes the phone unusable in a hurry.   Any explanations or solutions.

    Add me to the list of disgruntled users who have had this same problem since upgrading to 3.1. After restarting the phone, it works for about 30-40 minutes and after that, no calls, no texts, no voicemails, no 3G web browsing or email (wi-fi still works).
    The tech at the Genius Bar (at the 3rd St. Santa Monica, CA store) seemed as though he had no idea what the problem was. Since my phone is out of warranty, he told me that if the phone needed to be replaced, it would be at my expense, which p*ssed me off, since it was obvious (to me) that the OS update was at fault.
    I did a half-dozen restores before I realized that there was no way to roll back to a previous version of the OS and that outside of that, it didn't really matter what I did.
    I just read the tip on this thread about turning off 3G. It works fine so far. We'll see if it continues to work after the dreaded 40-minute mark.
    Thanks, everyone, for the help. Hopefully, Apple will put out a fix quickly, before they have a revolt on their hands.

  • Lightroom (Vista):  Reversed/Mirrored Images in Preview!

    New user to Lightroom 1.2 here using a Vista PC.
    When I connected the camera (Canon G9 or Canon SD870is) to my PC via the USB, Lightroom was already opened (as recommended by the Kelby Lightroom book). At this point, a pop up dialog box opens up and there is a small check box at the bottom LEFT corner that says "Preview", which I checked because I WOULD like to see/preview the images. Oddly, the pictures showing up (to the right side of this dialog box which expanded after I checked the "Preview" box) are MIRROR images or at least REVERSED!
    May I know why that is the case and whether or not there are user changeable settings? It seems to me that it is not desirable to have reversed preview images!
    Thank you in advance!

    Hi Jay & Rob,
    Thx for your comments/advice.
    Today, I used my Sandisk Extreme III's included MicroMate USB card reader (very small, more like a wide-looking flash drive with a little slot for the SDHC to go into. It worked. The previewed images are no long mirror images.
    Does this basically mean that there is no hope for the Canon G9 to ever change? I was informed in the Canon forum of dpreview by some folks that Canon, as a general rule, does NOT issue new firmware upgrades UNLESS there is a serious issue. That is to say, they don't issue firmware upgrades just for the sake of new functionalities, only if they HAVE to due to some defect. Actually, this IS a "defect", in my view. Not being able to work properly with one of the most popular and respected programs in the photography world IS a problem/defect.
    What to do now?
    On the other hand, as annoying as this is, I should only see the Preview thumbnails briefly, just to identify which pictures to "check mark".
    I wonder why it is considered so "bad" to connect the G9 directly to the PC? I like it more because it decreases the possibility of breaking the little flimsy door of the battery/SDHC card compartment (less opening/closing = less chance of breakage). I don't find the speed to be that horrible. The 10 pictures or so I downloaded using the MicroMate card reader (given free with my Extreme III card) took just about as long as it would have from the G9, but then again, 10 pictures is not much...should it have been 150 pictures, it might have made a more substantial and noticeable difference.
    any comments please? thx in advance!

  • Reverse printing a window (Mirror image) in smartforms/scripts

    Hi,
    Is it posible to do a reverse print of a particular window(Mirror Image) in smartform/script output?
    Scenario:
    I have 3 windows in the smartforms.
    Window1
    Window2
    Window3
    I want to print Window1 & Window3 normally & Window2 upside down like a mirror image.
    Regards,
    Sree

    Hi friend,
    One suggestion if you are printing your company logo or some thing like that in the window2 then you can invert the image using paint and then again upload it.
    Else if its some sort of text like that then you can rotate it using some functions like '^FWR' like that there are functions to rotate the text.
    Or else you can handle this using or setting the printer settings but i think its not possible to change the settings for only one page.
    See the Link : [Printing vertical text in Smartform|Printing vertical text in Smartform;.
    In this the post by Julie LV will be helpful to you.
    I think this will solve your issue if you face any queries please revert back to me i will help you.
    Thanks,

  • How to reverse photos? photo booth needs reversing, it is a mirror image.

    The photobooth pictures are mirror images.  Most photo/picture software offers a "reverse image" as well as "rotate" choices, but I cannot find a way to do this in iphoto or photobooth.  Is it possible?

    This is what we are asking for in iPhoto, not flipping, MIRRORING!!!
    This was done in Microsoft Photo Editor. Thanks. The click photo while holding down contorl is supposed to give one the mirror option in iPhoto, although,... I can't get it to work.
    It should not be this complicated,...come on Apple!!!

  • I have the officejet 7500 A and there is no mirror image option...how do I print with mirror image

    Officejet7500A how do I print mirror image?

    Yes using paint works, however it resizes once printed. I have been trying to reverse image print and i think its absolutley insane HP took away this option. Why have the image print for tshirt and not keep reverse. If i open my word banner project in paint, when i print it doesnt stay true to its size, then i have to photocopy and photocopy until i get the right size. Pain in the a@# if you ask me...lol. PLease bring back the option with a driver update! PLease! For pete's sake a ricoh printer at work has it, why not HP home where it will actually be used.. 

  • How do I print a mirror image?  Where did the old functionality go?

    Within the last several months I was able to print a mirror image of my document to my HP DeskJet F4180 in high resolution. I don't know if it is the new HP drivers, or my new Snow Leopard OS but now I can' figure out how to do it again. I can grab a screen shot in and flip it in Preview but it ends up printing in low resolution.
    I have printed mirror images in the past from my PDF applciations and I think from Office 2008 (PowerPoint). I find no documents saved on my hard drive that come up saved as a reverse image so I suspect that I was using a printer feature not an application feature to print mirror images.
    Where did this functionality go?

    Found it!
    Use the check box marked Flip Image. Didn't is say mirror before?

  • How to print a mirror image using powerpoint from my macbook to hp printer

    I am making t-shirts and I can't get this image to reverse (print out as a mirror image, which I need for the photo transfer paper to work I can reverse part of the image using the rotation tool for "flip horizontal", but for some reason it doesn't work on all of it. Also, I'm using a macbook and when I go to print, under "paper tray/quality" I can actually see a box to check for mirror image, but it is in grey scale, so I can't select it.

    Hi,
    Do you have any other applications installed ... like Adobe Illustrator, Photo Shop ...
    Also, you can open the image in VIEW and rotating the image as you like.

  • How to stop printing mirror image in word 2008

    Hello,
    Since yesterday, I have had occasional problems: documents are printed with the text in mirror image and last night a word document saved as a pdf file also had the text reversed. When I saved the same document as pdf a second time, it was fine.
    I can't find an answer in the usergroups and it does not happen every time.
    Apple tech support said that they had never heard of this problem and it had something to do with a "mirror image" command in word, but I can't find any information about such a command in word 2008.
    thank you,
    Cynthia

    the Preview.app has an option to Flip Horizontal.
