Using --width and --height I only managed to produce weird looking business cards For example: $fedora-business-cards --pdf fedora -u pingou --mm --height=85 --width=55 -> Width seems fine (although the Fedora and the 4F are over each other), height completely broken, looks like an A4 at the end I tried to convert the size from mm to inch: $ fedora-business-cards --pdf fedora -u pingou --height=3.46457 --width=2.28346 -> Pretty much the same result Using only the height or the width: $ fedora-business-cards --pdf fedora -u pingou --height=3.46457 -> Looks almost square $ fedora-business-cards --pdf fedora -u pingou --width=58 --mm -> Only end up with a thin horizontal band $ fedora-business-cards --pdf fedora -u pingou --height=88 --mm -> Only end up with a thin vertical band
