Hi all,
Does anyone know how to do this?:
I want to make a glossary/table in Pagemaker. I've already put the text in
a story, but I want to have the text in two columns that align perfectly,
so I can have, e.g.
Glossary entry 1 Definition here
and here
Glossary entry 2 Defintion here
etc etc
I had it beautifully laid out using a table in Word, but of course when I
placed it in PM it became an absolute mess. I've got Adobe Table, but it
doesn't seem ideal, because at this stage I don't know how long it will
be,
and I need to use funny colours and fonts for the Glossary headings.
*Any* advice or information would be warmly appreciated.
Thanks,
John.
