What to do when you're in a badly screwed up document - from the point of view of automatic formatting in document conversion - and the pages are supposedly in three columns and you're caught in the centre column and want to write in the rightmost column?




You don't care if your remove all formatting or whatever. Surely there's some way to just 'break out' of that column and go to the right?

Given the structure of your document, you can't even be sure columns are in use on a given page without looking closely at the formatting marks. On page 6, for example, there appear to be 3 columns but there are only 2 - the right side of the page is all part of the 2nd column, which begins about 5cm from the left margin. The vertical line is just that - not a column divider.
