Actually, I'm surprised to hear this. I should think that if you made you margins really small (left, right, top, bottom), and your font really small, you could reduce the number of pages. I mean, the text data is the same, so why wouldn't it be less pages if you made each page wider with a smaller font? I'm not saying it would look very good or be easy to read, of course.

You could try software like Publish-It:

This gives you more flexibility for columnar and booklet style printing than a typical wordprocessor. You can try before you buy and the standard version is only $24. The pro one adds PDF creation, but you wouldn't need that.
