Ambigrams, palindromes, semordnilaps and pangrams
It appears as though ambigrams are becoming a popular design exercise. I have noticed a bit of difficulty distinguishing between ambigrams, palindromes and semordnilaps (I think you need to scroll down to see semordnilap). I wonder if it’s possible to design an ambigram/palindrome or an ambigram/semordnilap?

EDIT: um, excuse my language. I'll leave it as an exercise for the reader to deduce the censored word.

"Otto" in Exocet is a palindromic ambigram.

A full alphabet of letters that each flips to itself is fairly easy, if ugly in places. Then you can apply it to any palindrome.

Not quite sure what umbrella this one falls under, but I thought it might be of interest.

I think a similar subject has been posted here:

The example, though, is not the most readable.
