Bug ID: 94847
Summary: RTL Page order
Product: LibreOffice
Version: Inherited From OOo
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: major
Priority: medium
Component: Writer
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
When writing with Format->Page set to Left to Right, the first page (odd, #1)
is the "Right page".*
However, when Format->Page is set to Right to Left, the first page (odd, #1) is
labelled "Right page" and acts as such when mirrored page margins are set.
(I.e. The outer margin is on the right for the right pages).
In RTL books the first page is on the Left. You open a book ("from the back").
The cover is on the left side. You unfurl it to the right. Turn the page again.
Now there is the Title Page, the first page, the odd page, the #1 page, on the
LEFT. I know of no way to fix this. Adding an additional Title Page a dummy
page does not change this.
I could tell the page numbers to start at 2 or 4 to offset the odd/even
problem. But then I have to think backwards whenever I set inner/outer margins
in a mirrored setup and text alignment in headers and footers.
Oh, and also it makes booklet printouts impossible.
Please fix
*(That it is displayed on the left on two-page view is a minor annoyance. The
first two pages should be just grey on the left and the first page, #1, should
be displayed on the right)
