Mirror image to the reverse, what does it mean?

Just a quick blog post to clear up any confusion over what "mirror image to the reverse" means. You'll normally hear this term used when asking about printed flags or printed bunting. It simply means your design will show correctly to one side, but on the other side it will show as if it mirrored or flipped horizontally.  The reason for this is because of the nature of the material it is being printed on. Standard polyester material is quite thin so the design printed on one side is shown through the material. This is why we can't print double sided polyester bunting. If double sided bunting is what you need then materials like PVC and Synthetic have many of the outdoorsy properties of polyester so make very good substitutes.
