    Inserting Columns

                     Dividing the content of a document into columns is a useful formatting technique
                     that  is  employed  in  newspapers,  magazines,  newsletters  and  brochures.  This

                     method enhances readability and aesthetics by organising the text into narrower,
                     vertical sections. A column is a vertical area displaying text.

                     To arrange content in columns, follow the given steps:

                     Step 1  Select the text you want to format into columns.

                     Step 2  Click on the Format menu from the Menu bar.

                     Step 3  Select the Columns option in the drop-down menu.

                               The Columns dialog box appears on the screen.

                     Step 4  Type the required number of columns in the Columns spin box. In our

                               case, we have typed 2.

                     Step 5  Specify the width and spacing of the columns in the Width and Spacing
                               section.

                     Step 6  Specify the style of the separator line in the Separator Line section.

                     Step 7  Click on the OK button.

                                                                                                           7
