Hi all - I am composing a side-by-side translation, where I wish the right column to be in Hebrew and the left column to be the corresponding English. I found that the eplain \doublecolumns does not work very well (I am using xetex, not xelatex, because I want very fine control over layout).
Getting the text into nice side-by-side columns wasn't too difficult, but I'm having two problems: 1) When breaking a too-long column (using \vsplit) I am getting some odd residual ' characters, and I have no idea where they originate. 2) In the two-column mode I am unable to see footnotes. This puzzles me but is probably something simple that I am overlooking. Sample code, resultant PDF showing the problems as well as the log file are here: http://ronware.org/bad.zip I appreciate any assistance from the TeXperts!
