[Message part 1 (text/plain, inline)]

Hello Bastien, the current Org refcard cannot be used as a triptych (I’ve
tried with both Letter and A4 paper) in contrast to the Emacs refcard
(which can be used as a triptych when printed with Letter paper).

When checking its Tex source code, I’ve found that there are some
parameters missing and also one of the columns overflows because the title
is too long.

With the patched version I was able to print it in Letter paper and use it
as a triptych, like I did with the Emacs refcard.

Best regards,
José García.
