MS Office Forum / Word / Page Layout / April 2008Two column layout
I have a translated text: German to English. What do I need to do to setup a two column layout that always has German on the left and english on the right with the two text "mirrored?" The only practical approach to this is a two-column (borderless) table. Start a new row for each paragraph--or at least every time you want to align the two texts.  SignatureSuzanne S.

Continuous text on each side, not wrapped side to side. You can also do this by doing two column breaks after the first column, but the problem with my situation is that I am using an outline one the left column and it wants to continue the outline to the right column which is not part of the outline (it's pictures). > The only practical approach to this is a two-column (borderless) table. > Start a new row for each paragraph--or at least every time you want to align [quoted text clipped - 5 lines] > > right > > with the two text "mirrored?" You need to apply an outline numbered style to the left column and a body text style to the right column. Don't try to use Normal for everything and apply numbering to it. SignatureSuzanne S.

I found this to be the most effective for my situation: Flow text side-by-side with linked text boxes http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/word/HP051895661033.aspx > I have a translated text: German to English.
