Presenting Text in Columns
You can organize text in a text box or in a rectangular shape into columns. When text
has filled one column, it flows into the next column.
Use the Columns pop-up menu in the format bar to quickly divide text into columns.
For more options, use the Text inspector.
To create and format columns using the Text inspector:
1
Select the text box or rectangular shape with text you want to divide into columns.
2
Click Inspector in the toolbar, click the Text inspector button, and then click Columns.
3
To indicate how many columns you want, use the Column field.
4
To use equal-width columns, select “Equal column width.”
To set up different column widths, deselect “Equal column width,” double-click a
Column value in the table, and type a new width.
5
To change the distance between columns, double-click a Gutter value and change it.
