would be</div>
<div class="moz-cite-prefix"><b>an imposition feature at PDF export</b>
- with the different options for imposition<br>
at least for double-pages booklets</div>

<div class="moz-cite-prefix">As for the need of juste presenting a
brochure side by side,<br>
I still think the easiest way is, as I explained it in another
message</div>
<ul>
<li>create a blank A3 (landscape) document (B)<br>
</li>
<li>insert A4 frames in the A3 pages of B (easy to do it for a
pair of A4 frames and copy the A3 page)</li>
<li>export the main document (A) as separate pages</li>
<li>insert the PDF pages in the A4 frames of B</li>
<li>export B in PDF, and we have a presentation of A on
double-pages side by side<br>
</li>
</ul>
<div class="moz-cite-prefix">This can be done in the order of
viewing or in the order of printing (imposition) if needed.</div>
<div class="moz-cite-prefix"><br>

<div class="moz-cite-prefix">Moreover, the second document can be
reused easily after modification of the first document.<br>
If the name has not been changed, it will even be automatically
updated if you rexport the A4 pages<br>
An it can be reused for another similar project...<br>

<pre class="moz-quote-pre" wrap="">Thanks Šarūnas, I see this option, however, when I use it, (both Facing Page Right and Facing Page Left) the pdf is still exported in single pages. Is this possibly including some sort of instruction for the PDF reader to parse ?
Or could this be a bug in my version of Scribus ? I'm on 1.5.5

This is one thing about using Facing Pages that is misleading. The only thing that happens is that pages are placed in the display in Scribus as if they were attached -- they're not, they're still individual pages.
To accomplish what you want to do for A4 pages, you would need to set up an A3 page in landscape mode, and divide the space into A4-sized areas, perhaps with Guides to help you. If you were going to print this, it would require some sort in imposition, but if you just want to be able to display pages side-by-side, this will work by itself.
