How to do a microsoft word invert text?


I have been using word software for a long time now. I am familiar with most of the functions but I was wondering if we could do microsoft word invert text. I have seen it on some other text editor. Please tell me how can it be done?

For inverting the text, you have to mention which version of MS Word you have been using, but the answer can be given considering that the process of inverting the text is very similar in all the versions.

For the 2002/03 version:

Step 1:

First, after writing the text it needs to be selected including the paragraph mark if the alignment is to be maintained and then it has to be cut using Ctrl+X.

Step 2:

From the menu bar, the Edit option has to be clicked on and the option of Paste Special needs to be selected in order to paste the text in the form of a picture by choosing the option of Picture (Windows Metafile).

Step 3:

After the text has been selected as a picture, it will be back on the page from where it can be furthered edited by right clicking on the text which is now in the form of a picture and clicking on the option of Format Picture.

Step 4:

After the tool box of Format Picture comes, any of the given options can be chosen apart from the one which says "in line with text", as that will change the picture and rotation will be a problem.

Step 5:

There will be a green handle kind of a thing which will appear next to the text which can be used to rotate the text using the mouse in any way desired and also the same tool can be used to invert the text.

For the 2007 version:

For 2007 the same steps can be followed as the earlier version of MS Word, but there are other ways of doing it too

Step 1:

After the text has been made into a graphic, from the option of Picture Tools, the option of Text Wrapping can be selected from where again any option can be chosen apart from "In Line With Text"

Step 2:

After the green handle appears next to the text it can be used to rotate the picture at will and the same thing can be used to invert the picture.

The same steps can be used for Word 2010 and the similar results will be displayed.
