Forum How do I...?

Mulitple columns stretching across many pages?

markt1964
I have some css3 that princexml is rendering reasonably well, except for sections of it that have very long text whghich are supposed to be in two columns and which multiple pages.

Instead of a two-column display, it is just printing it normally, as a single column area.
The css for my two-column layout is as follows:

div.two_column {
-column-count: 2; -moz-column-count: 2; -webkit-column-count: 2;
-column-gap: 1em; -moz-column-gap: 1em; -webkit-column-gap: 1em;
-column-fill: auto;
-text-align: justify;
widows: 3;
orphans: 3;
}

Either I'm doing something terribly wrong, or else I may have found a bug in princexml. I'm not sure which.


Thoughts?

Also... assuming that I can get a resolution to this, I've seen several html to pdf conversions which handle column text flow incorrectly... which do not flow text from one column to another at the bottom of each page, but instead flow the text through to the same column on the following page. If this issue can be resolved, I sincerely hope that princexml does not exhibit this behavior.
Thanks.

The column-count, column-fill, and text-align properties should not be prefixed with a hyphen.
