Unequal width columns

Unequal width columns

Hey list,

I am trying to typeset a document similar to below:

http://www.heptalysis.com/downloads/heptalysis_executive_summary_templa
te.pdf

My issue is with creating two columns of unequal width. As you can see
the left column is smaller than the right side. I've tried the
following:

\startcolumns[n=2,rule=on]
...left side contents...
\column
...right side contents...
\stopcolumns

Is there no way to set the first column to, say, 0.33\textwidth ?

Regards,

Hi Kip,


Maybe you can try this :

\defineparagraphs[TwoColumns][n=2, align={hz,hanging}]
\setupparagraphs[TwoColumns][1][width=52pt, style=italic, align=left]
% Note : you can play with the width.

\starttext
\startTwoColumns
Yourtext1\TwoColumns
Yourtext2
\stopTwoColumns \stoptext If you read French, see samples here :

Hope I don't send Owls to Athens ...

Hey Jean-Pierre,

That works wonderfully, except that for some reason all of the white
space between paragraphs is gone in the second column. I'm not sure why
since I have...

    \setupwhitespace[medium]
    \setupblank[big]
