B.9  Figures and Other Floating Bodies

Figures and tables are put where they appear in source, regardless of their placement arguments. They are outputed inside a <BLOCKQUOTE> element and they are separated from enclosing text by two horizontal rules.

Captions and cross referencing are handled. The \suppressfloats command does nothing and the figure related counters (such as topnumber) exist but are useless.

Marginal notes are not handled and the \marginpar command does not exist. If their document holds \marginpar command, users should define it as a null command:
\newcommand{\marginpar}[1]{}
