The methods were chosen -according to the look of different pages after applying them, not on the base of -any standards. - - -Loosening passes ----------------- - -The page content is loosened in three passes. The next pass is applied only -if the previous didn't give a satisfying result. The later a pass is applied -the bigger interference in the page arrengement it means. - -In the first pass the changes are applied to those elements which don't have -a chance to get entirely into the visibile scope of width - words which are -too long for the available page width, objects positioned beyond the page -borders and objects to big to fit a page. - -The second pass handles too big tables. The tables can be divided into two kinds -- those responsible for page layout and those used only for holding data. For -both of them some routines are used. Text in the cells is shrunken and broken, -if this doesn't help the table cells are changed into inline containers as the -table is problably a layout one. - -The third pass removes all margins and paddings. This saves a lot of space but -makes also the page much less readable, for this reason it is the last step of -loosening. - -- cgit v1.2.3
