How to flip an image in Google Docs

  1. Right-click on the image and select the Cut option. (Or use the shortcut – Ctrl + X on Windows and Command + X on macOS)
  2. Click on the Insert tab on the top.
  3. Click on Drawing.
  4. Click on Add new option.
  5. Now, paste the image by right-clicking inside the drawing tool and by clicking on the Paste option. (Or use the shortcut – Ctrl + V on Windows and Command + V on macOS)
  6. Click on the Action button on the top left and look for the Rotate option.
  7. Tap on Rotate, and now you’ll see two of the flip options – (1) Flip Horizontally, (2) Flip Vertically. Simply click on any of the desired options, and your image will be flipped.
  8. Lastly, click on Save and close. That’s how you can easily flip an image in Google Docs.

How to edit images in Google Docs
