You could try the scaling factor box for the individual fonts (instead of
the global document fontsize), however this will give wrong proportions as
it will not increase the spacing accordingly.

I do not know about the booklet package, but I would suggest to set the
papersize to a5 so LaTeX will know what is expected and do a proper layout.

 E.g. the koma-script packages will automatically compute text margins
 based on typographic conventions and experience (see scrguien.pdf).

There are packages or tools to sort the generated pages for printing on
A4 and producing a booklet (psnups, kprint, ..., but I have no experience
in using them).
