Icon Bookletizer 7.1

QuarkXPress automatically creates facing pages in reader's spreads format. Page two faces page three, just as the pages appear in the final publication. This is the easiest way to edit text, since you can see the entire spread at one time. But when it comes time to output a saddle stitched publication, the document needs to be rearranged into printer's spreads format. Bookletizer does this for you. With Bookletizer, converting your document from reader's spreads to printer's spreads is as easy as a menu command in QuarkXPress. You can even adjust for creep to make sure the gutter margins of longer documents remain consistent. Bookletizer lets you convert your document back to reader's spreads just as easily, so you can edit your document while viewing it the way your reader will.

Icon BookLightning 1.7.1

BookLightning is a Mac OS X 10.3 native utility for imposing PDF files into booklets, either for further processing or to print directly on a duplex or non-duplex printer. Operation couldn't be simpler: just drop a PDF file on the BookLightning icon, and it will create a new PDF with the pages of the original file arranged on sheets that are twice the size, two up and arranged so that they will form a booklet of the original size when folded in the middle. BookLightning does its job very quickly, generating the new PDF file typically takes less than a second.
For non-duplex printers, BookLightning splits the front and back pages, allowing two-sided booklets to be printed in two passes.
To create a booklet that will be created by printing on and folding letter size paper ( 8.5 x 11 ), set up your original document's page size to half that size: 5.5 x 8.5. This is exactly the size that the individual pages will appear at in the final booklet, because two of them have to fit on each side of the letter size sheets. For users with ISO "A"-style paper sizes, just drop down one size from the size of the paper you will be printing on.

Cheap Impostor is a simple yet powerful alternative to fancy page imposition software. It doesn't offer all the features of high-end imposition software (which costs hundreds of dollars).

Icon CocoaBooklet 2.0.4

CocoaBooklet lets you create a booklet out of a PDF file.
A booklet is book that is bound in the middle. Which means that a booklet has four pages printed on one sheet of paper (two on each sides). If you have for example a PDF file with 8 pages, you booklet will look like this:
First sheet, first side: pages 8 and 1
First sheet, second side: pages 2 and 7
Second sheet, first side: pages 6 and 3
Second sheet, second side: pages 4 and 5
The bottom line is that you simply print your booklet, staple it by the middle, fold it in two and you have a book !
This is also known as "imposition".
