Bug Description

I noticed that the text written on the back side when the mirror is activated is corrupted.
The text is "written" on the back copper layer.
If the mirroring is turned off, the resulting text is not corrupted.

When I noticed the thing on the monitor I ran to look at the pcb I received on Tuesday to see if they too have the flaw.
The strange thing is that the pcb are correct and I have generated / sent gerber files no more than 2 weeks ago so the bug appeared recently.
