As Gerry mentioned i reversed ports and pins, however the workpiece is now inverted and im getting narrow letter (test) also when doing to i get rounded corners, not sharp ones

ok so ive managed to get the T the right way up to where i want it.
will i have to do the steps per again due to swapping the axis, and also with the T being very narrow

Looks like your motor tuning calibration needs swapping over too. I'm guessing you've got different pitch screws on your x and y?
That should sort out the narrow letter problem.
Edit : Check your cursor keys for jogging from the keyboard too (hotkeys). You'll probably need to change those too.

You shouldn't need to change your jogging hotkeys, unless you've already changed them to a non standard configuration.
You will need to change your steps/unit, and accel and velocity settings if they are different for X and Y.Gerry
