Reverse text animate

I just like to reverse the direction of the "Fade out slow" under "Animate Out" in the Animation presets.

Right now the fading starts from left to right, but I'd like the text to start fading from right to left. I played with "Start" "End" & "Offset" but still can't do it.

    Expand the "Advanced" option and change the "Mode" parameter from "Add" to "Subtract".

    Have you tried time reversing the keyframes? Select them and go to Animation > Keyframe Assistants > Time Reverse Keyframes

    I did as you said but it fades-in the text from right to left. I'd like it to fade-out from right to left. When I did what you suggested, the text wasn't showing to begin with and as it played towards the end, it faded-in the text from right to left. I'd like to keep the text showing at the start and as the animation preset suggests, for the text to fade out at the end but from right to left, instead of it's default left-to-right.
