Hello,

I am using two columns, but the command \column which should force a transition to the next column does not work. Here is a small example (in dutch):

that looks OK here:

Tekst 1. Tekst 2. Tekst 3.

Isn't this what you want to get?

Yes, that's what I would like to get, but in fact I get:

Tekst 1. Tekst 3. Tekst 2.

And if I use: balance=no, I get:

Tekst 1. Tekst 2. Tekst 3.

Maybe there have been relevant changes since august last year?

indeed, there has been some changes to the \column command: \column \column[yes] \column[preference] (you may try, in your version: \def\column {\par {\testrulewidth\zeropoint\ruledvskip\teksthoogte} \penalty-200 \vskip-\teksthoogte \prevdepth-\thousandpoint} % signals top of column which equals yes) Hans ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Hans Hagen | PRAGMA ADE | pragma@wxs.nl Ridderstraat 27 | 8061 GH Hasselt | The Netherlands tel: +31 (0)38 477 53 69 | fax: +31 (0)38 477 53 74 | www.pragma-ade.com ------------------------------------------------------------------------- information: http://www.pragma-ade.com/roadmap.pdf documentation: http://www.pragma-ade.com/showcase.pdf -------------------------------------------------------------------------
