Hi Alex,

This is taken from a very old style sheet floating around on my pc (I think
it used FOP version 0.18 or something)
but you need to define the columns in your fo:region-body definition. If you
use a page-sequence fop will insert the
text in the columns. I'm not 100% sure about current syntax but it will
probably be something like this (this is older
syntax, like I said before):
