I agree it should not say the words "this is part of GNU Emacs".

I think this is what we should do, in the refcard source. How about
this text?
As a special additional permission, you may distribute reference cards
printed, or formatted for printing, with the notice "Released under
the terms of the GNU General Public License version 3 or later"
instead of the usual distributed-under-the-GNU-GPL notice, and without
a copy of the GPL itself.
Then change the notice used in the formated file
to say that.
