I introduced a friend to LibreOffice and ever since I've become some

Now there's a new problem and I lack the experience. I never did any
such thing in M$-Word too.
She wants two pages to print on one paper (like having two A5 page
texts showing on one A4 paper). She wants it visible on screen with
page numbers showing for both sheets -- one on left and the other on
right side of the ONE mother page. She claims its possible in M$-Word
and I believe her. So, is this feature in LibreOffice-writer or is
this where I put up an apologetic speech? Can someone save me the
embarrassment ... Please?

Could you do this with two columns on landscape orientation? No
sequential page numbers, though.

Bob, my test with an old OOo document had it showing a number sequence
with left and right side numbering. This worked fine with printing 2
pages per sheet and each of the pages show kept their numbering. Now if
you want to have sheet numbering, instead of page numbering, then it
seems not to be a valid option.
I still so not know the ins and outs of doing left and right footer page
numbering, except what was shown when I looked at odd and even pages in
the Format > Page option. But, if the person wants page numbering for
each page shown on the sheets, it does work fine.
Here is a 2 page printout [pages 10 and 11] showing my test page printed
to CUPS-PDF. Export to PDF within writer does not show the ability of 2
pages per sheet.
