-\chapterhead{over}{OVERFULL BOXES\cr and\cr OTHER DISASTERS}
-Sometimes \tex\ and \intex\ have trouble making a {\it best} decision that is
-good enough. The result of this is a message that there is an {\it overfull}
-or {\it underfull} box. Chapter \ref{parcont} suggests increasing the
-value of |\tolerance| and |\pretolerance| so that \tex\ will accept worse
-looking lines. This is fine except that the result is less than beautiful.
-
-\tex\ indicates an overfull box by putting a big ugly black line at the end.
-This book has a few overfull boxes to demonstrate how they look. This chapter
-suggests ways of both avoiding and hiding overfull boxes.

-\pri\@|\hfuzz [=] <dimen>|&\tex\ tells of overfull horizontal boxes only if
-they are overfull by more than |<dimen>|. {\it Plain} default is 0.1pt. \cr
-\pri\@|\overfullrule [=] <dimen>|&\tex\ places a rule or line of width
-|<dimen>| at the end of an overfull box and of the same height as the box.\cr
-\pri\@|\vfuzz [=] <dimen>|&\tex\ tells of overfull vertical boxes only if
-they are overfull by more than |<dimen>|. {\it Plain} default is 0.1pt. \cr

-\shead{action}{Overfull Boxes --- Action}
-The recommended way to handle an overfull box is to rewrite the passage that
-is causing the offence. This will generally work quite well if the box is an
-isolated event. It has the feature of not destroying the beauty of the
-document.
-
-However, if you want to hear about overfull boxes but don't want the black
-marks let |\overfullrule = 0pt|. If you don't want to hear about them,
-increase the size of |\hfuzz| and |\vfuzz|.
-|\finalversion| increases |\hfuzz| and obliterates the black marks.
-
-Overfull |vboxes| are quite rare, as are underfull |hboxes|. If there is an
-underfull |hbox|, check it very carefully. The most likely error is not
-putting in glue to fill in the box. An example would be using |\line|
-instead of |\centerline|.
-
-Underfull |vboxes| are not as rare. They result when the |vboxes|
-on the page are quite large and the glue between them is not very stretchy.
-Pages with figures, tables or multicolumn format are the most likely
-candidates. The only solution may be a rearrangement of material in the
-document, forced filling of the bottom of the page. \tex\ provides a
-\@|\raggedbottom| command that puts glue at the bottom of a short page to
-prevent it from being stretched out. Whether this is an adequate solution to
-the problem is a matter of aesthetic debate.
-In general, information about over and under full boxes is desirable.
-
-\begingroup \bf
-When \tex\ indicates that there is an underfull box, it stretches, unless
-|\raggedbottom| is active, all stretchable glue. This may result in pages
-that look strange. Only glue between paragraphs, before and after display
-mathematics, between all list items, and before section \dots\ heads is
-stretchable. Interline glue is not stretchable either in {\it Plain\/} or
-\intex. In extreme cases (badness greater 10000) the page will have very
-disturbing spacing indeed.
