Decorate text like newspaper pages
Sorting text into columns will make your text more like a newspaper page. In Word, you can enter content first and then format it later.
There are several ways to do this. The first way is to apply the column type to the entire document. To do this, go to the Layout tab and select Columns .
On the drop-down menu that appears, you can select any option you like and it will apply to the entire text according to the default settings. Here we will divide the text into three columns, so select the Three option.
You will see your text looks like this:
Your text has been formatted, it looks good, but you can format the individual parts of the document in different ways. If there is a single paragraph you want to format by column, highlight that paragraph.
Then, go back to the Columns option and select the appropriate option. Here we will select Left .
As you can see, the selected segment has a column format while other content is not affected.
If you want the first paragraph in standard format, but the rest of the content is in double column format, you can do it on Word. Place the cursor in the section you want to format. In this example we will place it at the beginning of the second paragraph.
Back to the column option, this time we will select More Columns at the bottom of the options list.
The Columns window appears with custom column options. At the top of the window, you will see the Presets group with the same options as in the previous drop-down menu. Here we will select Three but if you want 4 or more columns, you can enter the desired number in the Number of columns option under the Presets group.
In the Width and spacing group, you can edit the size, column spacing. By default, all columns will have equal widths. To adjust other columns separately, uncheck the box next to Equal column width .
Note: The Line Between option will draw a vertical line between the text columns.
Now, click on the box next to Apply to to bring up a drop down menu. Because we leave the cursor at the beginning of the second paragraph, when selecting this point forward option , the first paragraph will not change the format. Then click on OK .
Now, while the first paragraph is still a single column, all other content in the document has been formatted in three columns.
Another trick is to add paragraph breaks to the document and then format each section. When inserting a paragraph break, return to the Columns window again. You will see a new option appear in the list next to Apply to . This new option only applies settings to that part of the document. Select the setting you want and select This section from the Apply to option and then click OK .
