The ways you might typically do this in HTML, and the associated problems in dompdf:

1) Option: tables. Problem: dompdf is unable to split an individual table cell between pages [#98]. What this means is that all cells in the table must be able to be contained in a single page, otherwise dompdf will either crash trying to push the cell to a new page every time it renders or the cell will only be partially rendered when dompdf hits the recursion limit.

2) Option: absolute positioning. Problem: dompdf will display the content only on the page upon which it is positioned. The spec is a bit vague [1] [2] [3], although some browsers do appear to continue the content on the following page. It's likely something we'll consider options for this type of content in the future.

3) Option: floats. Problem: dompdf renders page elements serially. What this means practically is that the floated element must be fully rendered before the next element. If a page breaks is encountered then the following element will be rendered after the page break.

The only solution I can see at the moment (and it's not a great one) would be to render the two columns into separate documents and use something like FPDF to overlay one document on top of the other.
