There are many ways depending on what your PC operating system is and what software you have.  Here’s one way assuming you are using Windows.

 

Using the snapshot tool in Adobe reader take a snapshot of the layout.  Paste this snapshot into the Windows Paint accessory.  Under Image; Rotate; select Flip Horizontally.  You may have to use the resize to adjust it to the right size.

Dear friends,

While using Paint for processing the PCB layout, there is the possibility of change to the size of the PCB lay out.
If you use " Irfan View" to process the PCB image we can take the print in the correct required size. It has option for printing in the required size.
