9 Easy Steps to Flip an Image in Google Docs
If you want to flip an image in Google Docs, you'll need to use the Drawing tool. You can't flip or mirror a photo in the document by itself. After importing an image into the Drawing tool, you'll be able to flip it horizontally or vertically. As the Drawing tool is only available with the desktop version, you won't be able to flip images with the mobile app. This wikiHow will show you how to flip or mirror an image in Google Docs using your Windows or Mac computer.
Things You Should Know
