Instead of having long passages of text spanning into long lines, ColumnText allows you to have your text automatically split into columns. This will make your text easier to read, while maintaining the ability to use horizontal screen estate.

As of version 1.0.0, the component will detect whether the visitor's browser supports the CSS3-native text columns, and use that instead of the JavaScript calculations.
