@user743 -- I believe what will happen if you use the -col 4 setting is that k2pdfopt will see the top region as two columns, the middle region as three columns, and the bottom region as two columns again. The way it will order the text will depend upon your setting for -comax and maybe also other column settings. It could end up being any of the three options in the attached. Alternatively you could use -col 2 (the default) and it would adjoin the center text to one of the two adjacent columns when displaying it (i.e. in the first example I attached below, you'd get 3 and 4 together or 4 and 5 together), which might not be too bad.
