simplify printing words backwards now?

HI last night when printing a word it will only print it backwords? meanding the word is spelled backward. It was working fine two days ago. I must have it some setting not sure what happened? Ideas? It will import the word backwards and print backward so I have tried to do a mirror image and it looks ok in the slicer, but still prints out backward?

Re: simplify printing words backwards now?

I'm guessing you have one of your axis directions flipped in S3D vs the actual hardware. If you go to "edit process settings", then click the G-Code tab, you can see the "flip build table axis" options on the right side. I'm guessing you need to swap one of yours (likely toggle the X-axis checkbox)
