Re: ugly big blank space

2007-03-25 Thread Marcelo Acuña
 AFAIK there is no out-of-the-box solution (aka some
 magic option) for
 this kind of problem that really works. If the space
 is just enough for
 an orphan/widow, but to big to be let empty, well
 what should LaTeX
 possibly do about it?

 Space is enough for 3 or more lines. No orphan/widow
involved. Only a big blank space.

 
 IMHO this is best solved by manual fine-tuning at
 the very end:
 
 - I usually start with altering the size of figures
 and floats on the
 pages before the problem page. Make them slightly
 smaller so that an
 extra line would fit on the problem page or bigger,
 so that the empty
 space no longer looks that empty.
 
 - If that doesn't help, I rephrase the text so that
 an extra line of the
 otherwise orphan/widow paragraph would fit on the
 page.
 
 - As a last resort, if space is a real problem
 because I have a page
 limit, I start to spread negative \vspaces at
 certain positions.
 However, doing so  can be a real pain.
