Mirror Image

The Mirror Image process is an optional node that flips the image across an invisible axis that you specify (either horizontal or vertical). The node includes a preview area to help you visualize your mirroring results. This node works with TIFF, JPG, GIF, PNG, and BMP files.

Note: This node does not support AES (Advanced Encryption Standard) PDFs.

To open the Mirror Image Node window, add a process node for Mirror Image and double-click on it.

• Check the Enabled box when there are multiple processes in a workflow. If unchecked, this process will be ignored. Documents will pass through as if the node was not present. Note that a disabled node will not check for logic or error conditions.

• In the Node Name field, enter a meaningful name for the Mirror Image node.

• In the Description field, enter a description for the Mirror Image node. Although this is not required, it can be helpful to distinguish multiple processes from each other. If the description is long, you can hover the mouse over the field to read its entire contents.

• In the Reflect on area, select the axis across which you want the object to be reflected. Choices are:

  • Vertical Axis - The left and right parts of the image are interchanged.

  • Horizontal - The image is turned upside down.

The preview area will reflect an example of the mirror process that you have chosen.

• Select the Save button to keep your Mirror Image definition. You can also select the Help button to access online help and select the Cancel button to exit the window without saving any changes.
