Adjust the spacing between columns in Word
Column text often makes the content easier to read because the line length is shorter.It is also possible to use smaller font than usual.So you can adjust the content of the text to fit a page.The type of document determines the number of columns and the width of each column.Typically between 40 and 60 characters per line.More or less can be difficult to read.
If the space between columns is too narrow, the reader is likely to continue reading one line from one column to the next instead of reading the content from one column to another.So to adjust the distance between the columns you can choose one of the following 2 ways!
1. Method 1
After you have typed the text, highlighted it and selected the column splitting operation in Page Layout -> Column, select More Column.
For Word 2013, select Columns from the Page Layout menu.Then adjust the spacing between the columns in the Spacing section.
The length of a line is usually shorter when the text is divided into columns.Therefore, you should be aware of the indentation on a paragraph.Encourage you to use paragraph indentation with small spacing or not even indentation.
2. Method 2: Quickly access the Columns dialog box
Many column formatting options are in the Columns dialog box.To quickly open this dialog box, you can place the cursor at any column and double click on the space in the horizontal ruler as shown below:
