The paragraph in your document has its direction set to left to right not right to left, though it is right aligned. You need to change that to get the right text order.
I can't seem to find the buttons to change the RTL\LTR directions. Where are they hidden?

I wasn't able to follow the instruction. Might it be that i am using a different version and the instructions have change?
