+
+  <p>In paged media CSS2.1 classifies all pages as either left or right
+   pages. The page progression direction, which determines whether the left
+   or right page in a spread is first in the flow and whether the first page
+   is by default a left or right page, depends on the writing direction as
+   follows:
+
+  <ul>
+   <li>The page progression is right-to-left if the root element's &lsquo;<a
+    href="#writing-mode1"><code class=property>writing-mode</code></a>&rsquo;
+    is &lsquo;<a href="#vertical-rl"><code
+    class=css>vertical-rl</code></a>&rsquo; or if the root element's
+    &lsquo;<a href="#writing-mode1"><code
+    class=property>writing-mode</code></a>&rsquo; is &lsquo;<a
+    href="#horizontal-tb"><code class=css>horizontal-tb</code></a>&rsquo; and
+    its &lsquo;<a href="#direction0"><code
+    class=property>direction</code></a>&rsquo; is &lsquo;<a href="#rtl"><code
+    class=css>rtl</code></a>&rsquo;.
+
+   <li>The page progression is left-to-right if the root element's &lsquo;<a
+    href="#writing-mode1"><code class=property>writing-mode</code></a>&rsquo;
+    is &lsquo;<a href="#vertical-lr"><code
+    class=css>vertical-lr</code></a>&rsquo; or if the root element's
+    &lsquo;<a href="#writing-mode1"><code
+    class=property>writing-mode</code></a>&rsquo; is &lsquo;<a
+    href="#horizontal-tb"><code class=css>horizontal-tb</code></a>&rsquo; and

+    class=property>direction</code></a>&rsquo; is &lsquo;<a href="#ltr"><code
+    class=css>ltr</code></a>&rsquo;.
+  </ul>
+
+  <p>(Unless otherwise overridden, the first page of a document begins on the
+   second half of a spread, e.g. on the right page in a left-to-right page
+   progression.)
