Because a microscope has a convex lens, and they bend light so that when you see it it appears upside-down and backwards (or the other way around). For example, the letter "d" will appear to be the letter "p"

If the letter p is placed under the microscope in the normal reading position what orientations of the letter would the viewer see?

There are mirrors in the microscope, which cause images to appear upside down and backwards. So a letter p would appear as a letter d through the microscope eyepiece.
