You can have Microsoft Word format part of your text, or the whole document if you like, in two or more columns.

Let’s say that you only need a part of your text to be in columns. You don’t have to insert page breaks, etc., your job can be done quickly and easily.

Just select the text you want to place into columns, then go to the Page Layout menu, press the Columns button and select the number of your columns. That’s all!

Note that Word inserts a (continuous) break automatically upon formatting the columns, therefore, if you need a special page setup for this part of your document, such as wider margins, you can immediately assign the changes to the text you have in columns. Enjoy!
