Not only can boxhandler conveniently lay out table and figure +captions with a wide variety of stylistic appearances, but allows for +figures and tables to be ``wrapped'' in a manner consistent with many +business and government documents. + +For a document that might appear in different venues with different +formatting, boxhandler very powerfully permits the creation of a LaTeX +source document that can, with a single-line change in the source code, +produce an output that has vastly different layout from the baseline +configuration, not only in terms of caption style, but more importantly +in terms of the locations where figures, tables and lists appear (or +not) in the document. + +Deferral routines also allow one to keep all figure and table data in a +separate source file, while nonetheless producing a document with +figures and tables appearing in the desired location in the document. + +Compatibility with the hyperref package is available with V1.30. + +Run `boxhandler.ins' through LaTeX to produce boxhandler.sty + from boxhandler.dtx. +Run `boxhandler.dtx' through LaTeX to produce the documentation. + +This program can be redistributed and/or modified, with attribution. + + Steven Segletes <steven.b.segletes@mail.mil> + 18 October 2012 |
