As an experiment I tried it in Acroread.  Scaling to print an A4 display to A5 
paper is easy, but scaling to put several pages on one seems to be done only 
by the printer.  I would imagine that this means that using this printer 
driver I would be able to do the same from any app that lets me access the 
printer setup, as KDE apps do.  

FWIW, my first attempt printed wrongly because I had incorrect settings, so I 
got 4 pages, but they were printed two on top of two - not at all the 
intention.  Assuming that your printer has this facility, use the print setup 
to get your output.
