Default How to do reverse printing in Word 2003?

Apparently 'reverse printing' means different things to different people...so this is what I am asking about:



https://d1mkprg9bp64fp.cloudfront.ne...ypeExample.jpg

I used to know how to do this back in the days when Word 2003 was on the library computers, but that was too long ago to remember. Can anyone help me out with a step-by-step walk through?

I don't think your image represents what you are hoping to achieve.
The setting may have been a Printer/Printer Driver feature. I am thinking of reversing the Image as if one was printing for a transfer image or backside of a transparency sheet.

If you mean printing the pages in reverse order, last page first, that may be in the Print Options or Word Options under the File menu.

Most options in Word 2003, if I remember, are under the Tools menu. Print options may be part of the Print dialog.

Yes it is exactly what I am hoping to achieve...white text on black background.

Yes, I see the tools menu. From what little I recall it is a fairly complicated multi-step process consisting of highlighting the text twice, and other stuff.

You may be able to change just the THEME COLOR palette.

Is this a regular thing you want to do or is it a one-off? You can either change the Word document itself or print it to a PDF file and then 'invert' the colours.

If you want to explore the PDF method, a google search will return discussions like this Is it possible to invert text and background colors in a PDF when printing? - Super User which might get you started.
