+1 INTRODUCTION
+==============
+
+The current limit of unprocessed floats, 18, can be increased with this
+morefloats package. Otherwise, \clear(double)page, h(!), H from the
+float package, or \FloatBarrier from the picins package might help.
+
+Note: The main code of this package was invented by
+Don Hosek, Quixote, 1990/07/27 (Thanks!).
+Maintenace has been taken over in September 2010 by H.-Martin M\"{u}nch.
+
+
+2 DOWNLOAD
+==========
+
+'morefloats' is available on CTAN:
+ CTAN:macros/latex/contrib/morefloats/
+
+Also a ZIP file is provided that contains the files, already
+sorted in a TDS tree:
+ CTAN:install/macros/latex/contrib/morefloats.tds.zip
+
+'CTAN:' means one of the 'Comprehensive TeX Archive Network'
+nodes or one of its mirrors. This is explained in
+ http://www.tex.ac.uk/cgi-bin/texfaq2html?label=archives
+
+The CTAN stuff will be mirrored automatically from the
+ftp server, so
+ ftp://ftp.tug.org/pub/tex/morefloats/
+corresponds to
+ CTAN:macros/latex/contrib/morefloats/
+
+
+3 INSTALLATION
+==============
+
+Installation with ZIP file in TDS format
+----------------------------------------
+The ZIP file 'morefloats.tds.zip' contains the files sorted
+in a TDS tree. Thus you can directly unpack the ZIP file
+inside a TDS tree.
+(See CTAN:tds.zip for an explanation of TDS.)
+Example:
+ cd /...somewhere.../texmf
+ unzip /...downloadpath.../morefloats.tds.zip
+Do not forget to refresh the file name database of this
+TDS tree.
+Example:
+ texhash /...somewhere.../texmf
+(and check for old morefloats.sty at other locations in your
+ TeX installation).
+
+Manual installation
+-------------------
+a) Download the morefloats files from CTAN or the TUG server.
+ If necessary, unpack them.
+b) If directory 'beta' exists, replace the files by the
+ counterparts in this directory, if you want to use the
+ latest versions.
+c) Generate the package and driver files:
+ tex morefloats.ins
+d) Install the files '*.sty', and '*.cfg' in your TDS tree:
+ cp *.sty *.cfg TDS:tex/latex/morefloats/
+ Replace 'TDS:' by the prefix of your TDS tree
+ (texmf directory).
+e) Copy the documentation files to
+ "TDS:doc/latex/morefloats/":
+ README, morefloats.pdf, morefloats-example.tex.
+f) check for old morefloats.sty at other locations in your
+ TeX installation and delete them (or back them up,
+ but in a way TeX does NOT find them automatically).
+g) Update the databases if necessary, e. g. for teTeX:
+ mktexlsr .../texmf
+
+
+4 ADDITIONAL PACKAGES
+=====================
+
+morefloats itself loads the kvoptions package,
+ CTAN:macros/latex/contrib/oberdiek/kvoptions.dtx
+which again loads other packages
+(see the result of the \listfiles command in the log-file
+ of morefloatsexample.tex).
+
+
+5 PACKAGE COMPATIBILITY
+=======================
+
+There are no known incompatibilities (yet).

+
+7 BUG REPORTS
+==============
+
+A bug report should contain:
+* Comprehensive problem description. This includes error or
+ warning messages.
+ * \errorcontextlines=\maxdimen can be added in the
+ TeX code to get more informations in TeX error messages.
+* Minimal test file that shows the problem, but does not
+ contain any unnecessary packages and code.
+* Used drivers/programs.
+* Version information about used packages and programs.
+ * If you are using LaTeX, then add "\listfiles". Then
+ a list of version informations is printed at the end
+ of the LaTeX run.
+* Please no other files than the minimal test file.
+ The other files .log, .dvi, .ps, .pdf are seldom
+ necessary, so send them only on request.
+* Please .zip or .tar.gz your file(s) before sending them!
