I've tried a number of things and I just can get it right.

Have you tried flipping the text horizontally or vertically?

This displays the text correctly but on the incorrect path.

I can’t reproduce this. From your screenshot, it looks as though the path has somehow had its height halved.

Hi @MichaelB88,
Welcome to Affinity Forums :)
To fix this follow the steps below (using the image on your first post as reference):
1. select the text object
2. flip horizontally (the path is now wrong, don't worry about it)
3. switch to the Node Tool
4. draw a marquee selection around all nodes of the path
5. flip horizontally

The path and text should be fixed now.
