Is there a way to invert text in Microsoft Word? In Format; Text direction, I can make the text run up or down vertically but I cannot flip it so it is upside down. I'm trying to make a tent card so I need text to be readable on both sides of the card when folded.
Any advice welcome.

You're probably best using "Wordart" to do this. You can rotate the text so it turns upside down.
I think it's a bit arty for Word! I use Powerpoint for most things. If you were to insert a text box, there'll be a green rotate dot that'll allow you to spin the text whatever way you want.

Sorry I couldn't help with Word!

Yip use Wordart :

Insert WordArt, and type your text. Then right click your text, select Format WordArt and on the Size tab, set rotation to be 180 degrees.

Yes, WordArt does seem to be the way forward. I'll play about with it for a while. Thanks all.

Type in text you want then copy and paste result into word
Unless it's my setup, "hello" come out as "o11ǝɥ" when I tried it using that site.

Yeah agree it doesn't look too good in a browser, probably not suitable for printing actually as it just uses different number and letter to make it look upside down, so a l is a 1, though can't see why they couldn't use a l as it same either way up, great from freaking people out in msn and the such though :)
just use a text box (drawing toolbar)
and rotate
