This business of starting on the right is more complicated than I thought. I need some advice from people who are accustomed to the Japanese style of reading. On most new PocketBook devices, there is no D-pad for stepping left/right and up/down, so I use the Prev/Next buttons to do that. The Prev button has an arrow pointing to the left, and the Next button has an arrow pointing to the right. So, when there is no D-pad, the Prev button is used to step left, and the Next button is used to step right. When the end of the image is reached, the buttons then load the Next/Prev images. For left-to-right reading, it makes sense that pushing the Next button moves you to the right and then to the next page in the book, and pushing the Prev button moves you to the left and then to the previous page. For right-to-left reading, you would start at the right side of the page, press the Prev button (left arrow) to step towards the left, but when you got to the end, the Prev button would take you to the previous page rather than the next page.
How is this handled on Japanese devices? Are the Next/Prev buttons reversed so that the left arrow means Next Page and the right arrow means Previous Page? Or do they ignore the arrows, and use the Next Page to step forwards (to the left) and the Prev Page to step backwards (to the right)?
