So I see you are using the macOS "post processing" features to layout two pages
on each A5 page. The problem with changing anything other than the
"LibreOffice" section of the print dialog is that they are applied by macOS
(using whatever algorithms macOS has implemented) after LibreOffice has drawn
its content.

One thing I noticed is that with my fix for tdf#161623, if I immediately check
the "Brochure" checkbox in the "LibreOffice" section, the preview pane
rerenders all of the pages to be 2 pages for A5 sheet. The PDF is similar to
your snapshot but I notice that with the "Brochure", the margins are narrower
and content expands to fill that extra space.

I think something is wrong with the "Brochure" checkbox as I have found that if
it is checked when the print dialog is first displayed, the setting is ignored
and the paper is not rotated. But toggling that checkbox off and back on seems
to force the margins to be the same as in NeoOffice.

Is it possible that part of the cause of this bug is the flaky "Brochure"
checkbox?
