Creating Booklets from PDFs

So you can make PDFs from OpenOffice.org documents. Excellent. What if you've got a PDF already that you didn't create, and you want it in a format like this?

Stephen Abrams linked to from David Rothman  writes about BookletCreator, a free tool that lets you  create booklets from PDF files. It reorders pages so that after printing and folding the pages you get a small book.

Btw, I've got an upcoming blog on how to create booklets from Writer documents. It's scheduled down the line a week or two.

I really like what you've been doing with this blog, OO.o is complex and full of features and it's wonderful to see the tips and howto's that have been posted.

Hi Ross,

Thanks! Sometimes I feel like I'm in a tour guide in a city where there is really cool stuff, but sometimes the street names change or you have to make a Uturn unexpectedly. So everybody just goes to Branson and pays way too much for their entertainment instead. ;> (It's still early, my analogies are a little funky before the first cup of tea.)

I'm trying to create a cookbook in Writer, and this is exactly what I have been looking for, but haven't been able to find it on here. Did you ever post a "how to"?
