Hi Gerhard,

I have set a figure at left side. It approaches the botton of the page. The first line of the next page starts at the mid as if the rest of the figure would be there:

----------------------- | | text text text text text | figure | text text text text text | | text text text text text | | text text text text text | | text text text text text -----------------------

-------------automatic page break----------------

text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text

How can I prevent this behavior?

Does the figure itself fit on the page, or does it stick out on the bottom? If it does not fit, you have to insert a \page[preference] (or perhaps even the stronger \page) before the paragraph. If it does fit, the problem could be caused by whitespace at the bottom of the image. Cheers, Taco
