Verify that the current text STYLE is not set to BACKWARDS.

You may be "looking" at your drawing from underneath as a result of something like a VPOINT or DVIEW command. Make sure you're in Plan view [PLAN command, current UCS].

Kent1Cooper beat me to it. Verify your View, be sure you're not looking underneath the drawing.

No its in the plan view itself.

no sir, its the plan view. not the underneath. my plan is correct, only the thing is the text and object copied appears mirrored.

Can you upload the drawing? Its hard to diagnose this without the DWG.

Turn your UCS icon ON

It clearly shows you're not using world UCS.

to fix it:

UCS use w

PLAN use C
