Comment 1 Albert Astals Cid 2022-08-03 22:26:58 UTC 
As a workaround there's a config option that sets the reading mode to be RTL that i think does that, but i understand it's a pain to have to change it for each document

This config option can be added to the toolbar, but it does not affect text, only page layout in Facing Pages mode.
