Hello,

I'm printing transfer sheets for PCB artwork in which I must mirror the image on the printout so that it can be ironed onto a board or other hard surface. Problem is, the printer lacks a mirror option and there is no way I can convert the image before printing it out as the drawing program lacks a dependable way to convert its output to jpg, bmp, gif, tiff, or other file format. I was wondering, is there any kind of special program that can installed as a printer subsystem that would create one of these picture file formats when something gets "printed" to it? If so, I could then load the file into an image editor and do the mirroring there.
