As you see down left (Ascher, Leo) it continues top right (Asch, Schalom) - 14 pages all together. 
Any idea to do the job the best possible way!? |
I'm afraid you want the text flows from one column to the other. Sorry, you can't get that with ADE under epub2, only ADE under epub3. However, if you plan to build your ebook for Kindle (Kindle with support for .kf8) you could get the layout with the text flowing from one column to another. The code for that would be:
1. In the .css stylesheet:
Code:
#container {
-webkit-column-count: 2;
-webkit-column-rule-width : 1px;
-webkit-column-rule-style : solid;
-webkit-column-rule-color : black;
}
h1 {
-webkit-column-break-inside: avoid;
}
p {
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
text-align: justify;
}
2. In the .xhtml file:
Code:
<body>
<div id="container">
<p>Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit. Nulla ac tellus nunc. Phasellus imperdiet leo metus, et gravida lacus. Donec metus ligula, elementum at pellentesque pellentesque, suscipit ac nunc. Etiam lobortis, massa ac aliquam auctor, augue nisl sagittis urna, at dapibus tellus erat ullamcorper ligula. Praesent orci dui, pulvinar id convallis a, faucibus non mauris. Donec tellus augue, tempus sed facilisis sed, fringilla quis leo. Mauris vulputate, leo ac facilisis vulputate, enim orci interdum augue, in blandit quam turpis quis dui. Morbi dictum luctus velit nec faucibus. Cras vitae tortor purus, ut tincidunt mauris. Sed at velit nisl. Donec eu mauris tortor, interdum condimentum erat. Nam egestas turpis eget nibh laoreet pharetra. Suspendisse a sem eros, ut pulvinar enim. In sed elit eu nulla accumsan tincidunt eget sit amet ipsum. Nullam ut massa rutrum dolor placerat tempor accumsan eget purus.</p>
</div>
</body>
Here you can see how it looks in Sigil:
Of course, the line in middle of both columns can be elimined and the space between columns can be adjusted. But as I said before, this is only for Kindle (.kf8 Kindles); with ADE you need to work under epub3 (and the code would be a bit different).
