Here is a booklet PDF I made from a normal sequential PostScript
file (produced by GNU Troff) with psbook, psnup, and ps2pdf:

   https://s.tilde.club/?file=8213.pdf

Printing it on a two-sided printer is trivial, whereas on a
single-sided one you need to print it into stages:

1. the odd pages in asending order,
2. the even pages in reverse order.

Of course, with pstools you can also produce a PDF optimised for
a single-sided priter, so that prining it will require two
trivial runs:

1. the fisst half of page sequence,
2. the second half of page sequence.
