Duplicate the page and then use the Multiple option when printing the file

to a new PDF.

Duplicate a page: Actually, that's not necessary, see below.

Printing using Multiple: Open the Print dialog, under "What to print" select "Pages" and then enter the page number you want to print, twice. Then select the Multiple option and under "Pages per sheet" enter 1x2 (or 2x1).

Then click the Page Setup button at the bottom and specify the page size you want to use. Make sure you have the Adobe PDF printer selected, so that a new file is generated when you hit Print.
