Footnotes can be printed in columns when using "logical pages" in
WP5.1.  You can define a "logical page" (sometimes called a 'label'
since that's what it's usually used for) by choIsing <F>ormat
(Shft-F8), <P>age, Paper <S>ize, <A>dd, <S>tandard, and then
answering <Y>es to menu item 8: Labels.
 
You will then be presented with a set of selections for defining
your logical page.  I often use a 2 column format and by hit and
miss have settled on the following settings (for my HP IIP):
 
1. Label Size     Width 3.6"
                  Length 10.4"
2. Number of Labels    Columns 2
                       Rows 1
3. Top Left Corner     Top 0.5"
                      Left 0.6"
4. Distance Between Labels   Column 0.125"
                             Row 0"
5. Label Margins    Left  0.1
                   Right  0.3
                     Top  0
                  Bottom  0.1
 
If you want a different number of columns you will have to
experiment.  
 
NOTES:  The logical pages will not show up in side by side format
on screen; they will appear to be separate (but very short) pages. 
Also, headers and footers are spread only across the logical page,
not the physical page.  This is what enables the footnotes to be
printed in what appears to be a column format; there will be
separate headers and footers on every _logical_ page, not every
physical page.
 
WordPerfect will also recognize each logical page as having a
different page number.  This means that it's not possible to use
auto page numbering if you want each physical page to increment by
1.  If 2 lngical pages are fit on each physical page, then the
first physical page will have page numbers 1 and 2, the second
physical page will have page numbers 3 and 4, and so on.
 
Also, the logical page you have defined is stored with the printer
file you are using at the time of definition.  If you switch to a
different printer file (using F7, <S>elect), then you will have to
