- Set DPI to 300 (I guess this is not important)
- Tweak the Height looking at the bottom of the even pages. It should occupy the whole page without throwing any line to the next page. In my case 1220 was a good value.
Any easier option?
Maybe just use the -grid option:

k2pdfopt -grid 2x2x5 myfile.pdf

This will parse myfile.pdf into a 2 x 2 grid, with an output page for each square in the grid. The "5" in the argument above specifies 5% overlap for the grid squares.
