You can use the contex tool:

texexec --pdfarrange --paper=a5a4 --print=up

I put it in a little script to send a laser printer called pp12 thus:

#!/bin/bash
# 
#	a5pdfBooklet
#
#	Take a pdf file, run it through texexec and produce an a5 booklet which
#	is then sent to the printer (pp12).  
#
#	Usage:
#		a5pdfBooklet YourPDFfileWithoutSuffix
#
# 
texexec --pdfarrange --paper=a5a4 --print=up  $1 && lp -D -d pp12 texexec.pdf && rm texexec.*
