The boxhandler package
======================
Tools for Optimizing Captions, Presentation, and Placement
of Tables and Figures
This package facilitates the optimized presentation of LaTeX tables and
figures. Not only can boxhandler conveniently lay out table and figure
captions with a wide variety of stylistic appearances, but allows for
figures and tables to be ``wrapped'' in a manner consistent with many
business and government documents.
For a document that might appear in different venues with different
formatting, boxhandler very powerfully permits the creation of a LaTeX
source document that can, with a single-line change in the source code,
produce an output that has vastly different layout from the baseline
configuration, not only in terms of caption style, but more importantly
in terms of the locations where figures, tables and lists appear (or
not) in the document.
Deferral routines also allow one to keep all figure and table data in a
separate source file, while nonetheless producing a document with
figures and tables appearing in the desired location in the document.
Compatibility with the hyperref package is available with V1.30.
Run `boxhandler.ins' through LaTeX to produce boxhandler.sty
from boxhandler.dtx.
Run `boxhandler.dtx' through LaTeX to produce the documentation.
