To conserve paper (and weight), I would like to print it in a booklet form (i.e. 4 pages per sheet).  I can do this easily by converting the document to .PDF, then using pdftops, psbook, psnup, ps2pdf  (http://wiki.scribus.net/index.php/How_to_make_a_booklet method 1) except that I would prefer to have all the even pages "upside down".  If I just use the simple approach, looking at the booklet with the long side vertical it will look like:

In Scribus, I would think you could select everything on the page, then 
do a horizontal flip, then a vertical flip. The equivalent of a 180° 
rotation, but less fiddly.
