Summary description: Enables grid typesetting in two column documents in LaTeX
License type: lppl
Announcement text:
grid.sty is a LaTeX package to enable grid typesetting in double column documents. Grid typesetting (vertical aligning of lines of text in adjacent columns) is a difficult task in LaTeX, this is only a humble attempt to help users to achieve it in a limited way. An example document, grid.tex, has been provided with simple instructions to typeset it by making use of grid.sty. The package needs a lot of improvements, this is only a beginning.
This package is located at http://tug.ctan.org/tex-archive/macros/latex/contrib/grid . More information is at http://tug.ctan.org/pkg/grid (if the package is new it may take a day for that information to appear). We are supported by the TeX Users Group http://www.tug.org .

grid – Grid typesetting in LaTeX
The package helps to enables grid typesetting in double column documents. Grid typesetting (vertical aligning of lines of text in adjacent columns) is a difficult task in LaTeX, and the present package is no more than an attempt to help users to achieve it in a limited way. An example document, grid.tex, is provided with simple instructions to typeset it using the package.
The package needs a lot more work: this is only a beginning…
