Re: [NTG-context] interesting LaTeX package for flowing text

Yes, I delved pretty deep in columns but could not find a solution for a problem I finally decided to tackle with Scribus. I have text pepperred with tiny drawings which are surrounded by text on all sides. Sometimes as much as 8 drawings per page in changing locations. The only, rather painstaking, solution is to divide all text areas into boxes on layers BUT each box has to have the text of exact length input manually, which in my opinion is completely unfeasible. Well, unless you want to spend couple of years. Fortunately, it was the only case when I had to give up ConTeXt in almost ten years. Piotr 2010/8/12 luigi scarso :

Columns are excellent, no doubt, but as far as I understand them, they don't allow to flow text to boxes in arbitrary locations.
