Toby answer:
---------------------------------------------
I used Jade's extensions for the RTF backend:

 (make simple-page-sequence
   ;;...
   page-n-columns: 2
   page-balance-columns?: #t
   ;;...
   )

I also used the span: property of paragraph to get full-width headings.

Thanx Toby for sharing your experience. Question: have tried to create pages
having columns with different size? Have you found a trick to do so?
