Use page styles (with two columns)

for an index or other document

with two columns of text where the

text continues from the left-hand

column to the right-hand column

and then to the next page, all in

sequence (also known as

snaking

columns

of text). If the title of the

document (on the first page) is full-

page width, put it in a single-

column section.

For a newsletter with a complex

layout, two or three columns on the

page, and some articles that

continue from one page to some

place several pages later, use page

styles for basic layout. Place

articles in linked frames and

anchor graphics to fixed positions

on the page, if necessary.

For a document with terms and

translations to appear side-by-side

in what appear to be columns, use

a table to keep items lined up so

you can type in both “columns”.
