Is it possible to arrange a set of data columns (let's say columns A and
B) in a column like style (in a layout newspapers typically use).

The 2 columns A and B only take little space on a page so I'd decide to
split up a page into 2 or more columns. Whenever a page is full, the
content (column A and B) flows over to the next column and so on.

<1st page col> <2nd page col>
+-------------+ +-------------+
| A | B | | A | B |
+-------------+ +-------------+
| 1 | | | 5 | |
+-------------+ +-------------+
| 2 | | | 6 | |
+-------------+ +-------------+
| 3 | | | 7 | |
+-------------+ +-------------+
| 4 | | | 8 | |
