Columns in a page are always balanced, in that the simple page geometry
only provides for a column count and a column gap ... thus, the column
widths are always equal.

Follow the property hyperlinks on page 90 to column-count= and column-gap=
(if you use the 1-up PDF file the hyperlinks are active; if you are using
the 2-up PDF file the hyperlinks are disabled; clicking on a page number
takes you to the page in my book, clicking on a section number brings up
the section of the specification itself in a browser window).
I will bring out this topic into a page of its own, around pages 85-86.
Thanks, Eliot!
