Is there a way to create 3 columns of bullet entries with a single text page? Only way I’ve been able to do this, is by creating an amalgam of several text paragraphs to join as one page.
I’m not exactly sure what you mean by a “single text page”.
If you mean three columns of bulleted text on a single web page, you could use three separate text objects. For better/easier alignment, you could use a table.

The text object editor is a bit basic for multiple columns (a la MS Word) so like Postyr suggested the only way I've found is to have a single bulleted list in a text object and then have three of them side by side.
You need to watch your font sizes to make sure thant the rows align nicely, also, you could drag over the three text objects and do Arrange / Align /Top to make sure they all sit at the same level. And, it might be a good idea to group them so that they don't get accidentally nudged during further edits.

Thanks guys. I’ve been handling the bullets in the way you suggested with many paragraphs joined. This runs into problems sometimes where placements do not line up properly or loses proper orientation especially for a 2nd party web language translators.

I believe you’re correct; the length of translated word, do not exactly correspond with English version or the font is automatically selected by the web translation program, thus the reason why my original question. On the other hand if CSS is maintained through out the single paragraph instead of a composite of many paragraphs, it’s much less problematic. I appreciate your suggestions.
