By default, Word's Normal template is formatted as a column, so when we enter a paragraph of text, the format of the input is also a column. However, sometimes we need to use two or three columns after a paragraph of text, but after the text of the column may use a column of paragraphs, that is, often encountered a column and multiple columns mixed in the same document.
By setting up the column format, you can easily implement a column and multiple column blending in the same document. For example, sometimes we write an article, the first section of the introduction of text is a column, after the introduction of the two columns or columns of text, in the end to add a section of the summary, in some abstracts of magazines often encountered this situation.
Let's take a look at how to implement a combination of a column of paragraphs with a multiple-column text.
1. After you create a new document in Word, enter an introductory text, as shown in Figure 1.

If you want to add a separator line between the columns and columns, select the check box "separator line." Set Finish Click OK.
