-<h3>Placing two-column floats at bottom of page</h3>
-<p/>You specified placement &lsquo;<code>[htbp]</code>&rsquo; for your full-width figure or
-table, but they always get placed at the top of the page... Well,
-it <em>is</em> what the documentation says: LaTeX, unadorned, only
-allows full-width floats at the top of a page, or occupying (part of) a
-float page.
-<p/>The <i>stfloats</i> package ameliorates the situation somewhat, and
-makes LaTeX honour &lsquo;[b]&rsquo; placement as well; the
-<i>dblfloatfix</i> package combines a tidied version of the changes
-made in <i>stfloats</i> with the
-
- <a href="FAQ-2colfltorder.html">float ordering corrections</a> defined in
- <i>fixltx2e</i>.
-<p/>A particular problem with <i>stfloats</i> and <i>dblfloatfix</i>
-is that the float will appear, at its earliest, on the page after it
-is specified. This has two undesirable side-effects: first, there may
-be no bottom float on the first page of a document, and second, float
-numbers may become &ldquo;entangled&rdquo; (particularly if you&rsquo;re using
-<i>dblfloatfix</i> that ensures that the early-specified bottom
-float is set <em>before</em> any single column floats).
-<p/>(The FAQ team doesn&rsquo;t know of any package that will make
-LaTeX honour &lsquo;[h]&rsquo; placement of double-column floats, but the
-<i>midfloat</i> package can be pressed into service to provide
-something approximating the effect it would have.)
