I don't know. Is it? As far as I remember, Word could do this easily, at
least since Word 97, and Word isn't a DTP application... I don't know,
however, if Word could do this with styles, I just did it with
"avsnittsbrytning", and I don't have a clue what that is in English. Not
page break, not paragraph break. Could be episode break or section break or
something like that. You typed a couple of paragraphs, maybe with three
columns. Then you inserted that break, whatever it's called, and then you
could change the layout to maybe have 4 columns or just 1 or whatever you
want. Having only one column setting for one page, isn't that unnecessary
limiting? I think so anyway, and it happened to me a few times that I had to
do a workaround with frames to get what I want, even when doing simple
things as writing a report. When writing in, let's say three columns, I
sometimes want the intro to the text to be in
one wider column, especially the header and especially if I use many columns.

I can't be the only one who wants to do this with a word processor, can I??

Besides, why can't a word processor also do DTP stuff? Include all DTP stuff
in writer and include a MS Publisher filter, and we will get rid of all
those Publisher questions on this
list... (or at least we can answer them quickly with only a few words)  =D
