Scott Pakin submitted the

  threadcol

package to CTAN.


Summary description: Organize document columns into PDF "article threads"
License type: lppl

Announcement text:
----------------------------------------------------------------------

The threadcol package combines a document's columns into a
PDF "article thread".  PDF readers that support this
mechanism (probably just Adobe Acrobat/Reader) can be
instructed to scroll automatically from column to column,
which facilitates on-screen reading of two-column documents.

Even for single-column documents, threadcol supports the
creation of multiple article threads, which help organize
discontiguous but logically related regions of text into a
form that the user can scroll through as if its contents
were contiguous.

This package is located at 
   http://mirror.ctan.org/macros/latex/contrib/threadcol/
.  More information is at

appear).  We are supported by the TeX Users Group http://www.tug.org .
