u can define 3 windows of type MAIN in single page as columns then when u start printing with write_form, information will print to next columns > next column then the next page automatically.

1) Define new window as type MAIN in Windows tab.

2) then go to "Page Windows" tab

select Edit > Create Element

select MAIN window from selection which is defined in step 1

3) enter window margin and width / height for window 1 (Column 1)

4) Repeast steps 2 & 3 for two more windows (for co;umn 2 & 3)

so you will have 3 windows as 3 columns of type MAIN, then if you try to print something, it will automatically flow through columns to next page

Thanks.
