Don, The pages look just like the magazine and I believe the issues from the pre-electronic press days are just scanned. So yes, you have the typical columns.
It doesn't seem to be a problem for me. I can read it on my screen fine in the "fit page" mode where the magazine page height is equal to the screen height minus the program toolbars. Of course this can vary with the size of your monitor and its resolution setting. I already had the Trains and Classic Trains sets, so I had an idea when the MR set was announced.

Most magazine articles converted to digital viewing for viewing a single page require to scroll down on the left side of the page, them scroll up and over to scroll down the right side. Clumsy at best. Don McGovern 1a.

Loaded it onto my computer when I got home from work (it took over 2 hours and 25 gig of hard drive). It's absolutely fantastic. Not only can I see what's there, like a periodical index, but it's instantly available for me to print, and the 100,000 pages of text is searchable. Just the thought of all those boxes of magazines leaving my attic has raised my top floor by an inch! I don't think I'd even mind moving if I had to :o) By the way, the first thing I printed out was String Bob's Iowa Central article. Hey Bob, the "Big Mistake"?
