Environments for floating objects

The env-float d.t.d. provides tags for floating objects. The following tag is the only high-level one:

footnote
Make a footnote.

The following low-level tags can be used for the definitions of high-level figure and table environments like big-figure, small-figure, big-table and small-table:

small-figure*
A macro for displaying a small figure. The arguments are a short name (like “figure” or “table”) for the list of figures, its real name (like “Figure 2.3” or “Table 5”), the figure itself and a caption.
big-figure*
A variant of small-figure* for displaying a big figure.

The following tags can be used for customizing the appearance the text around figures, tables and footnotes:

figurename
A macro which controls the appearance of the text “Figure”. By default, we use bold face.
figuresep
The separator between the figure and its number and the caption. By default, this is a period followed by a space.
footnotesep
The separator between the number of the footnote and the text. By default, this is a period followed by a space.
