Is there a mirror image function

I was wondering if there is a function that will allow you to mirror only the image on a drawing and not the whole drawing. For example, we get a set of base house plans from a builder and then when they have a customer buy a house they send us a set of by-lot plans that are spefic to that lot. Now if the home owner flips the orientation of the garage then we have to go through them by hand. If anyone know please let me know.

Thanks

Just a thought but why not just make a mirror copy of the original image with an image editor. MS Office Picture manager can mirror.

But will it mirror just the the floor plan for example or will it mirror the title block also for a dwf.

Paul wants you to flip the image in the program that created the DWF, then
you re-create the DWF: if you are wanting ADR to flip only the image, it
does not do that. No freebie from Autodesk will edit contents of a DWG or
DWF like that.
