Vertical Multicolumn (2019-01-16 12:03 by Heike #82430)
Hi there,
how to produce multicolumn japanese text with proper linebreak? The \hbox{\tate 青い} only provides one line at a time. Sorry if that has been asked before but I couldn't find a solution online.

A simple way is to load the lltjext package (by \usepackage).
This package add <> option (for specifying direction) to \parbox and minipage/tabular/array environments.
Example:
----
\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{luatexja,lltjext}
\usepackage{multicol}
\usepackage{bxjalipsum}% for dummy text
\begin{document}
\columnsep=2\zw
\parbox<t>{40\zw}{% tate!
\begin{multicols}{2} \jalipsum{preamble} \end{multicols}}
