To fix the wording or text on your projection from being backward, use the following picture. 
Lay the TV on it's back, so the screen faces the ceiling. With the projector attached to your TV, it will project to the ceiling in this position. Now, take a mirror at a 45 degree angle and attach it to the front of your projector box like in the above picture. This will then redirect the projection onto your wall with the text properly displayed.

To Improve Picture Quality:

Good results may be obtained by using a white sheet, a light colored wall, or even a shower curtain. But for best results we recommend you use a Silver Finished Screen made only for projected TV images. This will give you up to 6 - times brighter pictures than any other screen or material. No hot spots. No blurry edges. Can be viewed in partially lighted rooms. HOW TO MAKE YOUR OWN PROJECTOR SCREEN. Simply buy from your local paint store (for about $2.00) a Spray can of either No. 1246 Testors Enamel in Metallic Silver, or No. 1401 Krylon Bright  Silver enamel. Spray lightly several coats on wall, ceiling, plywood, wallboard, cardboard, etc. Let dry, and make more applications until a thick and smooth even coat of silver is deposited. This will give you a professional viewing screen that will greatly improve your projected TV image.

Blurry edges? Try sandwiching the lens in between two panels of flat glass. This will insure the lens is completely flat and thus project a better picture!
