Summary description: Put captions into the outer document margin.
License type: lppl
Announcement text:
This package provides a margincap environment that puts captions into the outer document margin. This is an incompatible update to the mcaption package! Changes:
v3.0 2009/03/13
New: * Obey \caption and \label commands inside margincap (at last!). * Macro \margincapalign is deprecated (no longer necessary for tabular declarations). * New compatibility option `v2.2'. Incompatible changes: * Environment margincap has no arguments. A compatibility option exists, that restores the old syntax with caption arguments. * The mcaption package requires package changepage to be installed (instead of chngpage). * Complete revision of the vertical alignment mechanism. Paragraph-breaking might be affected (hopefully only to the better). Fixed: * In one-sided documents chngpage/changepage's even/odd page detection was subtly broken by the mcaption package.
This package is located at http://tug.ctan.org/tex-archive/macros/latex/contrib/mcaption/ . More information is at http://tug.ctan.org/pkg/mcaption (if the package is new it may take a day for that information to appear). We are supported by the TeX Users Group http://www.tug.org .
