--- Comment #54 from A.Holtsmark <[email protected]> ---
"Wouldn't selecting "Multiple-page view" instead of "Book view" do what the
original post is asking for when viewing the document on screen?"

This is what I have been doing ever since I reported this bug >7< years ago.
However, doing so leads to the first page in the document being viewed as a
left hand page, which makes all left-hand pages being displayed on the right
hand together with the incorrect right hand page being displayed on the left
hand and vice versa. My workaround is to insert a non-document page at the very
front of the document, marked with "do not print or export this page". This
"throwaway" page nudges all the pages in the document into their proper place
when the document is viewed in "multiple page view".
However, when I print or export, I must every time manually select pages 2-500
for print or export.
This will then print or export a document which displays the first page on the
right-hand side.

It works for me alone, but if any one else has to work on, print or export this
document, then it is very likely that something will go wrong when setting up
the page view, or when printing or exporing the document.  

All in all a silly bug, the existence of which does not need 7 years of
discussion.  It simply needs fixing.
