if you're looking to have it set up like a little magazine (printed on both sides, two pages per sheet, and two staples on the fold), then you'll need to use acrobat. plug ins, booklet maker, set the set up for saddle stitch, and when you send it to the printer, make sure to should duplexing/doublesided printing.
you'll need to make sure it's laid out right, though, given the sizing.
