Default creating columns of text

You could insert your data in 2-column tables instead of ordinary columns.

If you want the data on each page to be separate: create one table per page,
each with 2 columns and 1 row.

If you create only a single table with 2 columns and 1 row and insert all
data in that table, the row can continue from page to page, still keeping
left- and right-column data separated. If the row stops at the bottom of the
first page even if you insert more data, select Table Table Properties
Row tab and turn on the €śAllow row to break across pages€ť check button.
