Add ability to export PDF as imposed spreads
It would be SO helpful to be able to export a PDF of a print layout as imposed spreads... the software already knows how to impose spreads in the Print Booklet feature, but if users could also export PDFs this way it would save a lot of time. I don't need to impose spreads often, but when I do it's a real time suck.

InDesign's Print Booklet feature should support exporting an imposed PDF directly, without requiring third-party scripts or PostScript workarounds. Currently, all Save as PDF options are blocked in the Print Booklet dialog on Mac, forcing users into outdated and unreliable workflows. Please add a native Export to PDF option in the Print Booklet dialog.

Right now there's a "Spreads" checkbox in the Export dialog, but the cover and back pages are not properly connected the PDF is not set up for printing a mockup. Please add the option to include the cover and back as spreads. (This should really be the default anyway.)

It is my understanding that it can be done on the windows platform but not on the Mac platform without adding a postscript file and jumping through hoops to get a pdf. It would be nice if this option was as easily accessible on Mac as well. Many graphic designers use Mac. Back in the day of PageMaker it was an easy option on a Mac.
