Dear Sarah,
Thank you for the advice. So, even though combining
both columns to make one with twice the number of
lines as the other pages, you think I should do it
this way? That's good enough for me unless someone
jumps in and talks me out of it. Thank you for the
help.
Always with love,
Lissi

Microsoft Word please?
I would leave the list as it is since columns can
cause problems with reading the list. Just leave
the page breaks as they are as well because the
numbering will still be correct even if the page is
very long since the page is not being printed and
therefore doesn't have to conform to any real page
size.

Word please?
Dear Volunteers,
At long last I'm almost ready to upload the
biography of William Wallace
I've been validating. It's a fabulous book if
you like history or have a
soft sppot for Scotland or heroes who give all
they have for the ideal of
freedom with no thought to material gain or the
acquisition of power.
After the Bibliography are a few pages listing
the reference numbers and the
book title and page where the information was
obtained. In the book, this
information is listed in two columns. In the
scan, it appears in a single
long list.
Should I attempt to create the second column? I
fear the list will be too
long for a single page in the single column
format as it will have twice the
lines of the other pages. Or, should I make a
page break thus putting one
page on two pages one column per page.
If I should be making the column, would anyone
give me some hints about how
to tell microsoft word for windows 2000 how to
do it?
As a braille reader, I think the information
would be easier to read without
columns, but I'm still not sure if I should make
that kind of change to the
original text. Maybe it wouldn't matter since I
wouldn't be tampering with
the content in any way. Only the number of pages
would change and this at
the end of the book. The pages in the body of
the text wouldn't be changed.
thanks in advance.
Always With Love,
Lissi
