Hi,

How to create a 'dictionary style' PDF document from Org, with two
columns and with dynamic page headers[1]: here I share (attached) an Org
file, in case it is useful to someone, with the (simplified) LaTeX code
I used to define the styles of the entries and the dynamic page headers
in the typesetting of the /Hispanic Dictionary of Classical Tradition/.

I produced this dictionary (828 pp.) using Org and Org-Publish, with
output to LuaLaTeX. Some images:

[1] If a page contains multiple entries, the first and the last entries
are collected, both separated by an en dash; if the page contains a
single entry, or a continuation of the previous page/entry, it is
collected that entry only.

Best regards,

Juan Manuel
