No, "imposition" (the printing industry term) for larger docs like 32 pages just isn't possible in FrameMaker, Jackie.  

There are a couple of alternatives, depending on how frequently you might need to do this and at what stage. 

If you need to do this frequently then one option would be a tool called ClickBook, which has limited capabilities, or going to something more versatile such as QuiteImposing ( http://www.quite.com <http://www.quite.com> ), which works on PDF files. 

If you search on this forum for "imposition" you may find previous postings outlining some of the alternatives for imposing pages from FM. 

If you're sending your document to a commercial printer then they normally would do the imposition.
