In DTP lingo what you want to do is "impose" the pages. You should be able to find imposition tools on the internet, now that you know what to look for. 

This might work for you: http://www.oep-h.com/impose/

Here is another set of PDF tools (free) that I've used to re-order pages:

Now that all those manuals are online, I've been downloading and printing a lot 
of them. Even double sided printing is easy. But how do I print the little 
ones? Most of Tandy's OS-9 manuals, including the OS itself, should be printed 
two pages to one sheet, but I'm having a little trouble figuring out how.

I want to print, for example, pages 1 and 3 on one side, 2 and 4 on the other. 
Using Acrobat reader 7.05, I can't just pick what pages to print, and printing 
odd or even pages in a 4 page range gets them out of order. How do I keep them 
in order, and print exactly what I want?
