Check out my other PDF tools: pdfautonup | dummypdf. This tool can be used online at: https://pdfimpose.it.

Imposition consists in the arrangement of the printed product’s pages on the printer’s sheet, in order to obtain faster printing, simplify binding and reduce paper waste (source: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Imposition).

This software can perform imposition on PDF files of arbitrary size. It handles several imposition schemas: hardcover binding, saddle stitch, one page zine, etc. See documentation for more details.
