Basic Examples (2) 

Write text upside-down:

In[1]:=

Out[1]=

Write that result upside-down too:

In[2]:=

Out[2]=

Scope (2) 

UpsideDownTextConvert works on sequences of lines. Consider the random haiku (obtained with the resource function RandomEnglishHaiku):

In[3]:=

Out[2]=

Here is the corresponding upside down version:

In[4]:=

Out[4]=

Here we split into verses and make the upside down versions (by invoking UpsideDownTextConvert only once):

In[5]:=

Out[6]=

Certain special characters are also inverted:

In[7]:=

Out[7]=

Properties and Relations (2) 

It is natural to use UpsideDownTextConvert with FlipView (clicking on the output flips it):

In[8]:=

Out[8]=

ImageReflect can be used to produce images that resemble the output of UpsideDownTextConvert. Here is a text:

In[9]:=

Out[2]=

Here is a transformation of the text above with ImageReflect:

In[10]:=

Out[10]=

Compare with the output of UpsideDownTextConvert:

In[11]:=

Out[11]=

Possible Issues (1) 

Some special symbols do not have upside-down equivalents. In some cases the results might be confusing:

In[12]:=

Out[12]=
