I'm not certain what you want.  I understand you to mean that you want 1 
page with three columns on it.  These three columns are to hold 2 1/2 
pages of text, with the following text starting at the top of the next 
page.  To do this, place your cursor after the end of your 2 1/2 columns 
of text and insert a new section.  The format section command will allow 
you to start this new section at the top of a new page.

Does this do what you want?
