    Marion:

    Bummer. I don't see a booklet half-size printing format
    option.

    Here is a booklet PDF I made from a normal sequential PostScript
    file (produced by GNU Troff) with psbook, psnup, and ps2pdf:

    https://s.tilde.club/?file=8213.pdf

    Printing it on a two-sided printer is trivial, whereas on a
    single-sided one you need to print it into stages:

    1. the odd pages in asending order,
    2. the even pages in reverse order.

    Of course, with pstools you can also produce a PDF optimised for
    a single-sided priter, so that prining it will require two
    trivial runs:

    1. the fisst half of page sequence,
    2. the second half of page sequence.
