I also use the booklet feature of Adobe Reader 9 after saving the file as a
PDF. I find that it works very well and is easy to use. Our printer does
duplex so I don't even have to worry about that. If yours doesn't duplex
Reader gives you the option of printing "front side only" or "back side
only." Also, if you have an odd number of pages Reader will insert blank
page(s) at the end to make the booklet.

An alternative is to save your file as a PDF, then download Adobe Reader 9
and use its "booklet print" feature.
Make sure that you have rights and lefts according to convention.

and if I may supplement, you'll probably need to specify the paper size
in the print dialog, need to change the orientation of the page from
"portrait" to "landscape", and specify "two-up" printing, and perhaps
all pages. I would also say that while I print the pages the same way, I
print them in a slightly different order than Ray writes.

Liek he does, I start with 8,1, but then I print the back side of that,
so I do 2, 7 next. Then I do 6,3, and like Ray does, I print 4,5 last.
Depending upon the number of copies I'm making, I may collate on the
fly, set out all the 8,1/2,7 pages individually, and when they are done,
all the 6,3/4,5 pages.
