While waiting for a response, I looked into this a bit further. It seems that this issue may have been inadvertently caused with some of the recent changes to the MultiColumnText class. (I say inadvertently because there didn't seem to be any documentation to the contrary - if this was an intentional feature, then I apologize ;-) )
I've attached a fix to the class, as well as a modification to the MultiColumnTextSimple test case that demonstrates the issue. I hope this helps! Thanks!

If I add a MultiColumnText object midway through a page, when that object spans to a new page, it too starts midway through the page (please see the attached PDF for an example). Is there a way to turn this feature off? Thanks! Jerry
