Denis:

Thanks, that is very helpful starting point which proves that it is poss= ible!

I have tried the suggestions there, but, so far:

I cannot adjust the gap ("distance" or "gutter") between the column= s
It seems impossible to turn-on a column-separating ruled line
It would be useful to have a method for controlling orphan / widow beha= viour (such that a footnote in the left column doesn't spill-over as just a= single line into the 2nd column).

Any comments or ideas?

Don't k= now if that is the current behavior or if this bug has been fixed.

I own a commercially published book t= hat has makes effective use of footnotes that are arranged in two columns o= n each page. Does anybody know how this can be set up within ConTeXt?
