What decides which part of an airfoil is the extrado and intrado?

Hi All, does anyone know how Jedicut decides which part of an airfoil is the intrado and the extrado? I drew up an airfoil in Inkscape with root and tip for a tapered wing, and the program decides to make the intrado and extrado on different sides of the root and tip airfoils. I then tried using the root airfoil and just reducing its size for the tip. That worked until I needed to widen the trailing edges. I put the dxf files back into Jedicut and found that the intrado and extrado's were changed around!
