Greetings,

I am trying to add (copper) text on the solder side of my board using 
the "solder" layer. No matter what I try, the text is always oriented as 
if it is on the component side. I read the entry in the "About PCB and 
Routing" document called "Why text I add to the solder side not 
reversed", which says the answer is to "Add it while the board is 
flipped (tab). Just selecting the solder side is insufficient. New text 
always reads correctly from the side you're looking at."

However, flipping to the solder side and adding text results in the same 
un-mirrored text as if I added it on the component side. That is, the 
text is mirrored while "looking" at the solder side and not mirrored 
when "looking" at the component side. What am I missing?

Thanks.
Girvin Herr
