Re: Stop filling in text from below.

You could use \FloatBarrier from the placeins package. All floats are forced to be inserted before the \Floatbarrier. It is mostly used to keep a float in a section, as it does not offer fine grained control whether the float moves to the next page.

tex4ht | XML Error with multiple Columns in Table

The problem is in:
&\multicolumn{2}{X|}{spam}\\
tex4ht doesn't like the { X |}. It has nothing to do with the multicolumn. That is handled correctly.

Any recommendation about how to add/modify in the the tex4ht macrofiles as to have tex4ht to ignore the unknown X and revert to a default situation ...

Small Legend to Symbols directly beneath Equation

Funny, I had the same question and I could not find a single answer, except your recent post, also unanswered.

I solved this rather succesfully by creating a tabular without any horizontal or vertical lines. Two left aligned columns. Put the symbols between $...$ markers.

A table didn't work ...

Re: Put To:, cc:, From: fields in left margin

Yes, that is it. Very elegant. And of course it is unthinkable that it was not yet available in one or another package. The hard part is to find out which one.

Thanks a lot.

Put To:, cc:, From: fields in left margin

\reversemarginpar
Jeniffer Smith\marginpar{\raggedleft{\textsf{To:}}}\\Marilyn Monroe\par


That works for now, and even while I have created a macro for \marginpar{\raggedleft ...

to predefined Latex layouts, but this style is something my company demands.
It looks something like this:
