Hi all,

I need to type parallel text on double columns. I've tried paragraphs,
tabulate, table and column environments. The best result of these options
gives the tabulate. Unfortunately, it does not respect alignment - many
\hbox errors in all environments except columns :(. What should I use and
set up?

\setuppapersize[A6][A6]
\defineparagraphs[TwoLang][n=2]
\setuptabulate[split=yes]
\setupalign[verytolerant,stretch]

\starttext

\startTwoLang
\input lorem
\nextTwoLang
\input davis
\stopTwoLang

\starttabulate[|p|p|]
\NC\input lorem
\NC\input davis
\NC\NR
\stoptabulate

\bTABLE[frame=off,align=yes,split=yes]
\bTR
\bTD[roffset=2mm]\input lorem\eTD
\bTD[loffset=2mm]\input davis\eTD
\eTR
\eTABLE

\startcolumns[n=2]
\input lorem
\column
\input davis
\stopcolumns

\stoptext

Best regards
Martin Hasoň
