To split a page into two columns, I would first open a word processing program such as Microsoft Word or Google Docs. Then, I would select the text or content that I want to split into two columns. Next, I would go to the "Layout" or "Page Layout" tab in the toolbar and look for an option to create columns. I would then choose the option to split the page into two columns.
Alternatively, I could manually create two text boxes side by side on the page and adjust their sizes to fit the content. This would allow me to have more control over the layout and spacing of the columns.
Overall, splitting a page into two columns can be easily done using the column formatting options in a word processing program or by manually creating text boxes.
