I am looking for imposition software. This is for making booklets and bound 
publications - page 1 and page 4 go on one side of a sheet and
page 2 and page 3 on the other.

For an 8 page publication, one sheet has page 1 and 8/2 and 7, the other has 3 
and 6/4 and 5. Likewise for 12 and 16 pages. This arrangement of pages is 
called Imposition. There is software available commercially as an Acrobat 
plug-in but the price is extortionate. Also it is desirable to have crop marks 
optional. Can't find anything for Linux, if it doesn't exist it would make a 
good add-on for open office. 4 pages on on sheet go 1,4 right way up at bottom 
and 2,3 upside down.

Is this what you are looking for:
In OOo Writer, you can use a A5 page style (portrait), choose Booklet under pint options (see button down left in Print dialog) and set theprinter so that it prints on A4 landscape.

Greetings,
