How to set up an MS Word document with a combination of a one-column and two-column layout (Journal Style)
Answer
If you are working on a journal-style layout, you may wish to have a combination of a one column layout and a two column layout in the same document. For example, a one-column standard layout for the Journal Title and then a two-column layout for the article text:
Step 1: Leave the line(s) for your journal article as the default one-column layout.
Step 2: Place the mouse cursor on the first line below the title where you want the two-column section to start.
- Go to the Layout tab and click Columns>More Columns. (click on the screenshot to magnify).
- In the columns setting window, select Two columns and select 'This Point Forward' in the “Apply to” dropdown.
- Click OK.
