I highly recommend you look into Fineprint software (www.fineprint.com) for doing booklets. Very flexible and easy to use. You can define as many "virtual printers" as you like for particular printing configurations you tend to repeat. I've been using it for 7 years and wouldn't think of printing booklets or any other scaled output without it.
