\tolerance is a penalty value that defines how much "badness" (in line setting) TeX accepts without yielding an error (and retrying to set the paragraph differently). The higher the value, the more interword space is tolerated. \emergencystretch defines how much interword stretching TeX allows if necessary. Details are explained here: http://www.tex.ac.uk/cgi-bin/texfaq2html?label=overfull > I need a flexibilty in the page height (really text height) because I have > some problems with prematures page break for a few milimeters but I don`t > know how to get it. Is tolerance or emergencystretch the way for get it? I would try \enlargethispage{10pt} (or any value of your choice) on the respective page. Jürgen
