I % upgraded the macros so that they work with \LaTeXe{} and used some % of the additional flexibility introduced therein. For example, the % command |\preparefootins| is now automatically called at % |\begin{document}|, thus allowing the user to adjust the % |\textheight| in the preamble. % % It is not surprisingly that I was forced to change some of the % macros because they dig deep into \LaTeX{}'s output routines. % Fortunately this is something normally not necessary when upgrading % other \LaTeX~2.09 styles to \LaTeXe{} packages. % % I also upgraded the documentation to conform to the \LaTeXe{} % terminology, e.g., this is a package since document classes will not % know about it. However it is very likely that I have missed some % necessary corrections. % % \section{Introduction} % % % The placement of footnotes in a multicolumn layout always bothered % me. The approach taken by \LaTeX{} (i.e., placing the footnotes % separately under each column) might be all right if nearly no % footnotes are present. But it looks clumsy when both columns contain % footnotes, especially when they occupy different amounts of space. % % In the multicolumn package~\cite{art:FMi89b}, I used page-wide % footnotes at the bottom of the page, but again the result doesn't % look very pleasant since short footnotes produce undesired gaps of % white space. Of course, the main goal of this package was a % balancing algorithm for columns which would allow switching between % different numbers of columns on the same page. With this feature, % the natural place for footnotes seems to be the bottom of the % page\footnote{You cannot use column footnotes at the bottom, since % the number of columns can differ on one page.} but looking at some % of the results it seems best to avoid footnotes in such a layout % entirely. % % % Another possibility is to turn footnotes into endnotes, i.e., % printing them at the end of every chapter or the end of the entire % document. But I assume everyone who has ever read a book using such % a layout will agree with me, that it is a pain to search back and % forth, so that the reader is tempted to ignore the endnotes % entirely. % % When I wrote the article about ``Future extensions of % \TeX{}''~\cite{inproc:FMi90} I was again dissatisfied with the % outcome of the footnotes, and since this article should show certain % aspects of high quality typesetting, I decided to give the footnote % problem a try and modified the \LaTeX{} output routine for this % purpose. The layout I used was inspired by the yearbook of the % Gutenberg Gesellschaft Mainz \cite{book:GG}. Later on, I found that % it is also recommended by Jan White \cite{book:JWh88}. On the layout % of footnotes I also consulted books by Jan Tschichold % \cite{book:JTs87} and Manfred Simoneit \cite{book:MSi89}, books I % would recommend to everyone being able to read German texts. % % % \subsection{Description of the new layout} % % The result of this effort is presented in this paper and the reader % can judge for himself whether it was successful or % not.\footnote{Please note that this option changed only the % placement of footnotes. Since this article also makes use of the % {\tt doc} package \cite{bk:GMS94}, that assigns tiny numbers to % code lines sprinkled throughout the text, the resulting design is % not perfect. This package is now a standard part of \LaTeXe.} % The main idea for this layout is to assemble the % footnotes of all columns on a page and place them all together at % the bottom of the right column. Allowing for enough space between % footnotes and text, and in addition, setting the footnotes in % smaller type\footnote{The standard layout in \TUB{} uses the same % size for footnotes and text, giving the footnotes, in my opinion, % much too much prominence.} I decided that one could omit the % footnote separator rule which is used in most publications prepared % with \TeX{}.\footnote{People who prefer the rule can add it by % redefining the command {\tt\bslash footnoterule} % \cite[p.~156]{book:LLa86}. Please note that this command should % occupy no space, so that a negative space should be used to % compensate for the width of the rule used.} Furthermore, I decided % to place the footnote markers\footnote{\label{thisftn}The tiny % numbers or symbols, e.g., the `\ref{thisftn}' in front of this % footnote.} at the baseline instead of raising them as % superscripts.\footnote{Of course, this is done only for the mark % preceding the footnote text and not the one used within the main % text where a raised number or symbol set in smaller type will help % to keep the flow of thoughts, uninterrupted.} % % All in all, I think this generates a neat layout, and surprisingly % enough, the necessary changes to the \LaTeX{} output routine are % nevertheless astonishingly simple. % % \subsection{The use of the package} % % This package might be used together with any other package % for \LaTeX{} which does not change the three internals changed by % {\tt \filename}.\footnote{These are the macros {\tt\bslash % @startcolumn}, {\tt\bslash @makecol}, and {\tt\bslash @outputdblcol}, % as we will see below. Of course, the package will take only effect % with a document class using a two-column layout (like {\tt ltugboat}) % or when the user additionally specifies {\tt twocolumn} as a % document class option in the {\tt\bslash documentclass} command.} In % most cases, it is best to use this package as the very last % package in the preamble to make sure that its % settings are not overwritten by other packages. % % It is unfortunate that the current \LaTeX{} has nearly no provisions % to make such changes without overwriting the internal routines. In % the \LaTeX3 implementation, we will certainly add some hooks that % will make such changes more easy. % % % \subsection{Limitations} % % If in the first column there is more than a full column worth of footnote % material the material will be split resulting in footnotes out of % order. This issue is now detected and generates an error but the package is % unable to gracefully handle it. This gives you two options: either rearrange % your input so that it will use less footnotes in the first column (or add % some pagebreaks at suitable places) or allow explicitly for more material to % be gathered. The latter can be achieved by adding %\begin{verbatim} %\makeatletter %\def\preparefootins{% % \global\rcol@footinsskip\skip\footins % \global\skip\footins\z@ % \global\count\footins\z@ % \global\dimen\footins2\textheight} %\makeatother %\end{verbatim} % to the preamble of your document. However, with this you allow two columns % worth of footnote material and that means that some of your footnotes are % likely to be detached from their reference and show up on a later page! % % \MaybeStop{ % % \begin{small} % \begin{thebibliography}{1} % % \bibitem{bk:GMS94} \textsc{M.~Goossens}, \textsc{F.~Mittelbach} % and \textsc{A.~Samarin}. % \newblock The \LaTeX{} Companion. % \newblock % Addison-Wesley, Reading, Massachusetts, 1994. % % \bibitem{book:GG} % Hans-Joachim Koppitz, editor. % \newblock {\em {Gutenberg Jahrbuch}}. % \newblock Gutenberg-Gesellschaft, Mainz. % % \bibitem{book:LLa86} % Leslie Lamport. % \newblock {\em {\LaTeX:} A Document Preparation System}. % \newblock Addison-Wesley, Reading, Massachusetts, 1986. % % \bibitem{src:ltxiii94} % \LaTeX\ Project. % \newblock \LaTeXe distribution, 1994. % \newblock Sources for {\LaTeXe} the successor to \LaTeX~2.09. % % \bibitem{art:FMi89b} % Frank Mittelbach % \newblock An environment for multi-column output. % \newblock {\em TUGboat}, 10(3):407--415, November 1989. % % \bibitem{inproc:FMi90} % Frank Mittelbach % \newblock E-{\TeX}: Guidelines to future {\TeX} extensions. % \newblock In Lincoln K.

For this purpose % \LaTeX{} maintains the switch |\if@firstcolumn|. When assembling % material for the left (i.e., the first) column, footnotes should % take up no space, since they are held over for the second column. In % the second column these footnotes are combined with the ones found % there and placed a suitable distance from the main text at the % bottom of this column. % % This means that we have to change certain parameters for the % insertion |\footins| when we construct the second column. The right % place to do this is in the \LaTeX{} macro |\@outputdblcol| which we % are going to change later on. What settings for the insertion % parameters are appropriate? For setting the first column % |\count|\.|\footins| and |\skip|\.|\footins| should both be zero % since footnotes are held over while for the second column % |\count|\.|\footins| should be $1000$ and the |\skip|\.|\footins| % has to be set to the desired separation between main text and % footnotes.\footnote{A value of $1000$ means that there is a % one-to-one relationship between the real size of the footnote and % the size finally occupied by the footnote on the current page.} % % % We will allow one column of footnotes (i.e., the right column) at % most, so that |\dimen|\.|\footins| has to equal |\textheight|. In % principle, it would be possible to allow for even more footnotes, % but this would complicate matters enormously.\footnote{It is not % possible to make {\tt\bslash dimen\bslash footins} larger than % {\tt\bslash textheight} directly, because this would result in a % full left column (with text) and more than one column of footnotes. % Instead, one has to make footnotes visible to the page generation % algorithm again at the moment when a full column of footnotes is % assembled, but we still have some space left in the first column. It % is a nice enhancement, and, I suppose, it is of some value for % preparing publications in certain disciplines, so here is the % challenge~\ldots} % % % \begin{macro}{\preparefootins} % \begin{macro}{\saved@footinsskip} % Since a document usually starts with a left column, we have to % set |\count| and |\skip|\.|\footins| on top-level to zero. For % this purpose, we define a macro |\preparefootins| which will % first save the current value of |\skip|\.|\footins| in a safe % place. This saved value will be used later for the second column. % In this way, it is possible for the user or a designer of a % document class to adjust this parameter without fiddling with the % code of this package file. % \begin{macrocode} %<*package> \def\preparefootins{% \global\rcol@footinsskip\skip\footins \global\skip\footins\z@ \global\count\footins\z@ % \end{macrocode} % We will also assign |\textheight| to |\dimen|\.|\footins| to % allow the user to change this parameter in the preamble. % \begin{macrocode} \global\dimen\footins\textheight} % \end{macrocode} % It is necessary to make the assignments above |\global| because % we are going to use this macro in the output routine which has an % implicit grouping level to keep the changes made by it local. % \end{macro} % Of course, we have to allocate the {\sf skip} register that we % used above: % \begin{macrocode} \newskip\rcol@footinsskip % \end{macrocode} % \end{macro} % % % \begin{macro}{\@outputdblcol} % Now we have all the necessary tools available to tackle % |\@outputdblcol|. We have to remember that when % |\if@firstcolumn| equals |\iftrue|, we are currently starting to % build the second column, i.e., that the first column is already % assembled. Therefore, the macro will start with the following % code: % \begin{macrocode} \def\@outputdblcol{\if@firstcolumn \global\@firstcolumnfalse % \end{macrocode} % After changing the switch, we save the first column (which was % placed by preceding macros in |\@outputbox|) in the box register % |\@leftcolumn|. Since we are inside the output routine, all those % assignments have to be |\global| to take any effect. % \begin{macrocode} \global\setbox\@leftcolumn\box\@outputbox % \end{macrocode} % Then, we make the footnotes visible to the page generation % algorithm by setting |\count\footins| to $1000$ (|\@m| is an % abbreviation for this number) and |\skip\footins| to its saved % value (i.e., |\rcol@footinsskip|). % \begin{macrocode} \global\count\footins\@m \global\skip\footins\rcol@footinsskip % \end{macrocode} % We also have to reinsert all footnotes left over from the first % column to make sure that they are reconsidered by the page % generation algorithm of \TeX{} using the new values for |\count| % and |\skip|\.|\footins|. But this will be done later in the % macro |\@startcolumn|. % % If we have just finished the right column, i.e., when % |\if@firstcolumn| equals |\iffalse|, we will reset the |\footins| % parameters as explained above using the utility macro % |\preparefootins|. % \begin{macrocode} \else \preparefootins % \end{macrocode} % Then, we compose both columns in |\@outputbox|, combine them with % all page-wide floats for this page (|\@combinedblfloats|), attach % header and footer, and ship out the result (|\@outputpage|). % Finally we look to see whether it is possible to generate % following pages consisting only of page-wide % floats.\footnote{This part is copied directly from the original % \LaTeX{} macro.

For our current layout, % this would mean that if \LaTeX{} decided to make the right % column of a page a float column, footnotes from the left column % would appear on a later page. A real cure for this problem would % be to rewrite two-thirds of \LaTeX{}'s output routine, so I am % leaving this open for the interested reader. % % \begin{figure}[b] % \fbox{%^^A % \newlength{\puzzlewd}%^^A % \setlength{\puzzlewd}{\columnwidth}%^^A % \addtolength{\puzzlewd}{-2.1\fboxsep}%^^A % \begin{minipage}{\puzzlewd} % \vspace{17pt} % \begin{center} % \bf Puzzle: % \end{center} % \vspace{-3pt} % \small % \begin{quote} % \rightskip \leftmargini plus 2.5em % Given a simple \TeX{} document containing only straight text, is % it possible for the editor, after % deleting one sentence, to end up with a document % producing an extra page? % % We assume that the deleted text contains no \TeX{} macros and % that the document was prepared % with a standard macro package like the one used for \TUB\/ production. % \end{quote} % \vspace{7pt} % \begin{flushright} % The answer will be given in the next issue. % \end{flushright} % \vspace{7pt} % \end{minipage}} % \end{figure} % % But the problem shows up even if only one float is contributed to % the right column since \LaTeX{} assumes that the whole column is % usable, whereas some of it might actually be already devoted to % footnotes from the left column. So we have to change the output % routine at least in the part that contributes floats to the next % column. The macro involved is called |\@startcolumn|. The first % thing we do is to check and see whether there are any deferred % floats. % \begin{macrocode} \def\@startcolumn{% \ifx\@deferlist\@empty % \end{macrocode} % If not, we set the switch |\if@fcolmade| to {\tt false} which % says that we did not succeed in making a float column. Then, we % set |\@colroom| to |\@colht|. The register |\@colht| holds the % amount of space that is available for floats, text, and footnotes % in one column, i.e., it equals |\textheight| minus the space % devoted to page-wide floats. |\@colroom| is a similar register % which holds the value |\@colht| minus space for column floats % that are already contributed to the current column. Of course, % both values should be equal when we start a new column. % \begin{macrocode} \global\@fcolmadefalse \global\@colroom\@colht \else % \end{macrocode} % If there are floats waiting for a change to be processed, the % situation is more difficult. In this case, we have to reduce both % |\@colht| and |\@colroom| by the amount of space that will be % needed for the footnotes from the left column. So we must check % whether such footnotes are present. As we have not reinserted % them in |\@outputdblcol|, we can check the |\footins| box. % \begin{macrocode} \ifvoid\footins\else % \end{macrocode} % If there are some, we measure the space that will be occupied by % them. This measurement is not really exact. If we have a full % column of footnotes, it will be too high, but this does matter % since we need it only for an upper bound on the free space % available for floats. % \begin{macrocode} \ftn@amount\ht\footins \advance\ftn@amount\dp\footins \advance\ftn@amount\skip\footins \fi % \end{macrocode} % We then reduce the |\@colht| by this amount and again assign % |\@colroom| the value of |\@colht|. If no footnotes are present, % we subtract zero, so there is no harm in doing this operation % all the time. % \begin{macrocode} \global\advance\@colht-\ftn@amount \global\@colroom\@colht % \end{macrocode} % Now, we call another internal \LaTeX{} macro that will try to % contribute floats to the next column. It will use the register % |\@colht| when trying to build up a float column, which is the % reason for reducing this register. If it succeeds, it will set the % switch |\if@fcolmade| to {\tt true}, otherwise, to {\tt false}. If % no float column is possible, it will try to place some or all of % the deferred floats to the top or the bottom of the next column, % thereby, using and reducing the value of the register |\@colroom|. % \begin{macrocode} \@xstartcol % \end{macrocode} % Afterwards, we have to restore the correct values for |\@colht| % and |\@colroom| again, but this time, they may differ, so that we % have to |\advance| both registers separately by |\ftn@amount|. % \begin{macrocode} \global\advance\@colht\ftn@amount \global\advance\@colroom\ftn@amount \fi % \end{macrocode} % Now, after doing the things depending on the status of the % |\@deferlist|, we have to incorporate the left over footnotes in % the new column. First we check whether a float column was % produced by |\@xstartcol| or not. % \begin{macrocode} \if@fcolmade % \end{macrocode} % If so, we do something awful.

On the other hand, a rule or % some other ornament in front of the footnotes is part of the % design which should be used consistently throughout a document. % As a last argument in favor of the rule, consider the situation % where \LaTeX{} decided to place only floats and footnotes into % the right hand column. In this case a separator again seems % adequate. In this situation one can even argue that it is % necessary to put in the {\tt \bslash skip\.\bslash footins}.} % This ends the if-statement testing whether footnotes are present % or not.

Actually, I would prefer to place % the footnotes below the bottom floats instead of above, as it is % done here. At least when the floats are part of the document and % not puzzles thrown in. But I was too lazy to implement it % because I seldom use floats.
