Booklet printing is when you print 2 pages per sheet, fold them and get 
a small book. For a 4-page booklet you need 1 sheet of paper printed 
both sides with page 1 and 4 on the "front" and page 2 and 3 on the "back".

For bigger documents the page order gets more complicated, which is why 
we'd like a program to do the sorting for us. LibreOffice and Adobe 
Reader are programs able to do this.

Printing multiple pages per sheet through normal print dialog doesn't do 
this sorting, it only puts multiple pages sequentially on sheets of 
paper - which is then severely "de-sequenced" once we start folding.

Hope I'm not going too basic here ;-)

All the best,
Alf
