Just a comment, after getting this all to work fine using Olivier's commands
with Jean-Pierre's last correction. 

I have always done imposition at the dvi level by using a sequence of
ancient DOS programs dviselec (to create a separate dvi file for each page),
dviconca (to combine pairs of pages into single dvi's), dvidvi (to make a
single big page with two side-by-side normal pages), and finally dviconca
again to combine all of the big pages into a single file. I did this rather
than with .ps because when I started ~15 years ago, I couldn't get the
.ps-manipulation programs to work. So anyhow, I thought I would try my old
method on Olivier's file. But none of those programs would run under Win7 on
my new laptop (!), because according to a pop-up they're incompatible with
the 64 bit version of the OS. I've so far been completely unsuccessful with
any of the Microsoft "Compatibility Administrator" tools or other Googled
hacks. So I may need to learn how to do this at the postscript level with
pstops and maybe ps2pdf (although I could probably print the big pages
directly from the postscript).
