In Thorium, it shows the pages side by side on the "paginated" mode in settings, but the pages are on the wrong sides. Meaning, if I have page 1 and page 2, they would appear on screen with page 1 on the left and page 2 on the right. That's the correct order for English, but Hebrew is read from right to left of course, so how do I display the pages in the correct order?

Thank you again.
Sorry for the late reply, I have exams soon.
I am really interested in learning how to edit and paginate with Sigil instead of with InDesign, for example. So your help is much appreciated.
Did you remember to do this?
