AW: how to print documents horizontal writing

[MARIA GALEA]

Hi Valerie and Stefan,
Before we could simply copy each column as a picture and paste into Word
right? So this is not possible any more?
What about using DocumentMaker program? Is it still possible to drag-drop
of columns into DocumentMaker or FileMaker Pro?
Thanks!
