I've got rather lost among the api documentation, not helped because 
I'm not sure what I'm looking for - a pointer would be appreciated (or 
even some real code, thanks!)

I've been working on code for automatically generating a document, and 
converting to pdf. I'm currently using the storeToURL method, 
specifying the writer_pdf_Export filter (all cribbed from code obtained 
by grubbing around on the net). That works reasonably well for simple 
export-A4-to-pdf.

However, I've just found I also need to do a 'booklet' conversion as 
well - A5 pages, printed 2-up on A4, and the pages correctly ordered.  
Now, this is an option that seems to exist, interactively, only under 
the 'print' menu, not on 'export as pdf'.  So:
1) is this available at all for pdf conversion?
2) if so, how do I use it from within OOo basic?

or,
3) where on earth do I look for a how-to-do-it?  api.openoffice.org 
doesn't seem to have much in the way of introductory material.

This is all for unattended operation (I'm running writer with the 
option -headless) on freebsd.

Thanks in advance!
