Chapter 3 Working with Document Parts 45

To format a document into multiple columns:

1 Click Inspector in the toolbar, click the Layout Inspector button, click Layout, and then

specify the number of columns you want in the Columns field. To type a number in the

Columns field, place the insertion point inside a text area in your document, type the

number in the Columns field, and then press Return.

2 To make all columns the same width, select “Equal column width.”

To adjust the width of all columns, double-click any value in the column list and type a

new number. To adjust the space between each column, double-click any value in the

Gutter list and type a new number.

3 To specify different widths for the columns, deselect “Equal column width.”

To adjust the width of a specific column, double-click its value in the Column list and

type a new number. To adjust the space between adjacent columns, double-click a

value in the Gutter list and type a new number.

4 In a word processing document, to adjust the space around the outside margins of

columns, specify new values in the Left, Right, Before, and After fields.

Layout margins are not adjustable in a page layout document.

5 In a word processing document, to move columns to the top of the next page, select

“Layout starts on a new page.”

“Layout starts on a new page” is not selectable in a page layout document.

6 To quickly create as many as four columns, click the Columns pop-up menu in the

Format Bar and choose the number of columns you want to use from the pop-up

menu.

7 To quickly modify column width and spacing, use the document ruler. Click View in the

toolbar, and then choose Show Rulers. Drag the left or right edges of the gray gutter

areas in the horizontal ruler.

Defining Column Breaks

In a word processing document, a column break ends the text flow in one column

(leaving the rest of the column blank) and continues it in the next.

The white areas in the

ruler denote the text area

within columns.

The gray areas denote the

column gutters.
