-<h3>Extra vertical space in floats</h3>
-<p/>A common complaint is that extra vertical space has crept into
-<code>figure</code> or <code>table</code> floating environments.
-More common still are users who post code that introduces this extra
-space, and <em>haven&#8217;t noticed the problem</em>!
-<p/>The trouble arises from the fact that the <code>center</code>
-environment (and its siblings <code>flushleft</code> and
-<code>flushright</code>) are actually based on LaTeX&#8217;s
-list-handling code; and lists always separate themselves from the
-material around them. Meanwhile, there are parameters provided to
-adjust the spacing between floating environments and their
-surroundings; so if we have:
-<blockquote>
-<pre>
-\begin{figure}
- \begin{center}
- \includegraphics{...}
- \caption{...}
- \end{center}
-\end{figure}
-</pre>
-</blockquote><p>
-or worse still:
-<blockquote>
-<pre>
-\begin{figure}
- \begin{center}
- \includegraphics{...}
- \end{center}
- \caption{...}
-\end{figure}
-</pre>
-</blockquote><p>
-unwarranted vertical space is going to appear.
-<p/>The solution is to let the float and the objects in it position
-themselves, and to use &#8220;generic&#8221; layout commands rather than their
-list-based encapsulations.
-<blockquote>
-<pre>
-\begin{figure}
- \centering
- \includegraphics{...}
- \caption{...}
-\end{figure}
-</pre>
-</blockquote><p>
-(which even involves less typing).
-<p/>This alternative code will work with any LaTeX package. It will
-not work with obsolete (pre-LaTeX2e) packages such as
-<i>psfig</i> or <i>epsf</i> &#8212; see
-<a href="FAQ-impgraph.html">graphics inclusion</a> for discussion of the
-genesis of <code>\</code><code>includegraphics</code>.
