 While most of the layout capabilities described are supported for both HTML and PDF output, some are available only for HTML output. You can use the full set of columns for HTML. Then, when you render PDF or LaTeX output, content will automatically be placed in the most appropriate related column (typically this will mean using the main column and right margin). Here is how columns are mapped:
 
--   Any column that uses the right margin (e.g. `page`, `screen`, `screen-right`, etc. will be rendered as `page-right` in LaTeX.
+-   Any column that uses the right margin (e.g. `page`, `screen`, `screen-right`, etc.) will be rendered as `page-right` in LaTeX.
