Do you know an easy way, like a software maybe, to do it? My printer doesn't do it of course.

What software do you have? Elements or even Word, you should be able to type what you want then just grab and flip it or if the program has a 'transform' option, just do a vertical or horizontal flip, whichever you are needing. If you don't, I am more than willing to help...

I don't have that version of Word. If you can't get it to work, consider Open Office. It's essentially the same program (but free) and it has a 'flip horizontally' feature.

www.openoffice.com
It's an open-source Apache product.

I get to the last part where it says this: Once the original WordArt has been flipped, create a new WordArt of the exact design and dimensions, and place it right above the flipped WordArt.
and I don't know what they mean. I had double clicked 'flip vertical' and it stayed flipped after I took the cursor off, but then it printed out regular even tho it was flipped on the screen.

Did you save it before you printed it? Maybe you need to do that for the printed version to be correct?
What don't you understand about the instructions? They're explaining how to create two images, one normal and one mirrored, so that it looks like a mirror is between them.

Oh I see Rosey. I guess my term mirror is incorrect. I just want the word flipped.

I knew what you meant..... 
I often hand cut titles using the mirror image .....so I can cut around the word without worrying about the yucky black line.
Hopefully we can get some thing sorted for you that works huh?
