+
+* Description
+=============
+
+The plates package provides a simple facility for inserting color
+figures in documents they should be gathered and printed together
+--- just like in books with a section of color plates. The benefit of
+such a facility is to allow these special figures to be printed
+separately and later slipped into the final document. The package
+provides the plates environment to handle this situation. The user
+need only place these special figures in a plate environment
+instead of a figure environment and issue a command to print the
+plates at a chosen location in the document. Additional, if the
+author wishes to have a version of the document where the color
+figures are included in the text merely including the
+figures option will change the behavior of the plates
+environment to a figure environment, causing the plates to be
+printed directly in the text.
