And example of situation where one might want to do this is printing flayers, originally made to be 1-page pdf.

This could be a duplicate of bug 200638

I could not find any software that when asked to print 4 times a document of 1 page and put 4 pages per sheet gives you what you want.

All the ones i've tried give you 4 pages with a page printed at 1/4 the side and the other 3/4 empty.
