Version details: 0.4.2
Distribution/Version: Ubuntu 4.10 (Gnome 2.12.1)

If you open a document and request to see pages side by side (View -> Dual), odd
pages (1, 3, 5, ...) are on the left and even pages (2, 4, 6, ...) on the right.

This is quite confusing since if you take a book, odd pages are on the right and
even pages on the left. 

In other words, if you create a document with pages "outer-margins" largers then
"inner-margins" (just like a book), you will see side by site the front and back
of the same sheet of paper if you print your document...
