[comp.text.tex] footnotes in multicol

rolfl@hedda.uio.no (Rolf Lindgren) (05/14/91)

Somewhere in the documentation of multicol.sty, it is decided that we want to
span our footnotetexts over the entire page.  Now what I want is not containing
my footnotes within one column - I want to stop multicol
_from_doing_just_that_!

I use the fullpage document option, and PS-Times-Roman, twoside, and  a few
local macro packages that _ought_to_ add nothing in this context.  Can anybody
out there shed som light on this? Under what circumstances does this kind of
thing usually happen?


Also, why does \begin{footnotesize} ... \end{footnotesize} typeset with the
same (it looks the same) \baselineskip as \normalsize?

Thank you,
