The feature or some of the options described in this Help topic are only available if support for right-to-left (right-to-left: Refers to keyboard settings, document views, user interface objects, and the direction in which text is displayed. Arabic and Hebrew are right-to-left languages.) languages is enabled through Microsoft Office Language Settings.
- On the File menu, click Page Setup, and then click the Margins tab.
- In the Gutter position list, click Right.
The gutters of odd-numbered pages will appear on the right, and the gutters of even-numbered pages will appear on the left. (This is in contrast to left-to-right (left-to-right: Refers to keyboard settings, document views, user interface objects, and the direction in which text is displayed. English and most other European languages are left-to-right languages.) documents, in which the gutters of odd-numbered pages are always on the left, and the gutters of even-numbered pages are always on the right.)
Note The margin settings change when you select right-to-left gutters. If you are starting with a document with right-to-left gutters, the change will not be noticeable. But, when you select right-to-left gutters for a current left-to-right document, the margin values are switched — for example, when you select right-to-left gutters for a current left-to-right document with a 1-inch left margin and a 2-inch right margin, the left margin changes to 2 inches and the right margin to 1 inch.
