PDF that is printed and folded

Hi,

I'm creating a flyer filled with events using fop. It's a A3 formatted page
with 4 columns printed on both sides.

After the flyer is printed, it's folded in the middle (to A4) and the order
of pages changes. The start page (the first column of the original first
page) is now the the first row of the back page. Do you understand me? ;-)
If not, i can draw a little graphic.

Is there a solution for ordering the rows/pages after their generation?

Yes, I understand the requirement. There is no facility for this in XSL-FO. As 
already suggested, you will need to post process the generated PDF using iText 
or other PDF manipulation library.
