Default Engine right thrust-why?

And/or why do we add down thrust? What happens if a particular design calls for right and down thrust and I get one or the other off a bit? I guess said another way, how do you know when you've got it right, or wrong. I think it has something to do with the advancing propeller, but beyond that I'm clueless. Then, does a 3 blade prop affect the equation somehow?
