Hello Nobumi,

I think you can achieve what you want by using text boxes; you can have a
set of two text boxes side by side on each page. You can cause the text to
flow from one text box to any other text box in the same document in any
order. If you link the text box on the right side of the page to the text
box on the right side of the following page, any remaining text not able to
fit in the text box on a page will flow to the designated text box on the
next page.
