Is it possible to automate it for using it in more than 100 single-paged pdf files? That would be fine for me.

Thanks people

You can do something similar to Markom's Briss option by just using k2pdfopt as long as all 100 of the PDF files have the same number of columns in the same positions (i.e. cut each page into the three columns like you would with Briss):

k2pdfopt -evl 1 -cbox 0.2,0,2.73,10.85 -cbox 2.92,0,2.41,10.85 -cbox 5.31,0 1.pdf

Each new -cbox option boxes one column. If each file is a little different, those -cbox numbers above would change for each file, so you'd have to manually figure them out each time, which would be tedious. But I still think I can get k2pdfopt to go around the figure more correctly in an automated way. I need some time to investigate.
