That's pretty strange. I did 2 different runs and printed to my "print to PDF
file" RWTS printer and that "printer" generates landscape A4 pages with two A5
pages per A4 page.

- My first run:
  - Check "Brochure" checkbox
  - Leave Layout > Pages per Sheet at "1"
  - Enable "Paper Handling > Scale to Fit Paper Size"
  - Set "Paper Handling > Destination Paper Size" to "A4"
  - Press "Print" button

- My second run:
  - Leave "Brochure" checkbox unchecked
  - Leave Layout > Pages per Sheet at "2"
  - Enable "Paper Handling > Scale to Fit Paper Size"
  - Set "Paper Handling > Destination Paper Size" to "A4"
  - Press "Print" button

My first guess is that the Paper Handling is done is a macOS or print driver
post processing step. But do you get A4 paper output with NeoOffice with the
above step? If so, maybe LibreOffice is doing something not obvious that is
messing up the print job?
