Page Layout ⇒ Multiple text columns

[schmag]

Hi guys.

I'm wanting to be able to have the following page layout.

- n vertical text columns
- n-1 vertical lines between the n vertical text columns
- the ability to put a horizontal line dividing sections of text within a particular column of text (of the n columns)

Any help or suggestions would be very much appreciated!

Thanks.
