Mirror image fonts?

[J. Scott Saults]

I was curious and did some searching. I found the following site that 
APPEARS to list some mirror image fonts:
\http://www.fonts.com/findfonts/mondosearchresults.htm?st=12&kid=mirror
Also, there's a very old Mac program called Fontographer that was 
able to manipulate and thereby create custom fonts. Surely there are 
some newer programs that can do the same kind of thing, although I 
don't actually know of any.

Good luck and keep us posted. Chances are some of us will need 
something like this, sooner or later.

Regards,
Scott Saults
