I'm trying to print off some text on the top silk screen layer. When using basic system font, everything is OK, but when I use Times Roman, (any other font?) the text is mirrored on my (Brother HL-1250) laser printout. Also, top line is bottom line & vice-versa, -possibly same bug. Came across (and resolved) the first problem years ago, but forgotten the fix. Problem doesn't occur if I print to a virtual PDF printer, and then print the PDF. Any suggestions please?

This is a printer driver issue. It's rotating True Type fonts clockwise, so when landscape rotates anticlockwise to print portrait, they print upside down.

Got to [Output], [Plotting and Printing], click on the [Options] button, then the [Windows] button. Check the box for 'Rotate Text Clockwise', then keep clicking on [OK] for each screen to exit.

You'll have to adjust this if you change your printer.
