I have an 8 page, 5.5 X 8.5 document. I want to print 2 pages on 8.5 X 11 paper, put it on the copier, copy on both sides to 2 pieces of paper, fold them and have a book. I want to understand how to do this from both InDesign and if I export it to pdf. I keep getting it in page order, not copy order. For example, the first sheet would have page 8 and page 1. The next sheet would have page 2 and page 7. (I actually will have a half page insert, so I have pages 3 & 4 duplicated because I didn't know if Indesign could figure that one out. But just incase, can it do that too?)
