Page Layout ⇒ Multiple Pages on a Single Page?

[EFaden]

I am trying to make some Flashcards to study from, I have looked at the flacards and flashcards packages, but they don't do exactly what I want. I was curious if it is possible to output several pages onto a single page in the output. E.g. I want to output a 8.5in x 11in piece of paper that is divided into 4 pieces duplexed. What is the best way to do this?... columns didn't work, and I can't figure out how to properly layout the cards...

A first step would be to write the cards as usual in a document where you specify the page size 4.25"×5.5" and compile to PDF. Afterwards you could merge the small pages in a 2×2 matrix on 8.5"×11" sized pages by the pdfpages package. But I see difficulties in keeping track of the corresponding front and back sides of your cards.
