It has been 4 years since this post...and calibre still can't handle multicol layouts. Any idea when this will happen?
A fair question, but Kovid does answer this question in the section you quoted. It will happen when he finishes it. Suffice it to say that a conversion from a print layout document (which PDF is) to a suitable ebook version such as epub is not high on his priority list.
