  70 % The microtype package provides the ability to micromanage your
  71 % typography. When invoked without any options it does some nice things
  72 % like protruding punctuation over the edge of the right margin to make
  73 % the margin appear smoother. Basically it makes your book look more
  74 % professional with very little effort. It also has a ton of options if
  75 % you want to micromanage even more.

  78 % By dafault, LaTeX will try and make all your pages the length that
  79 % you set using the geometry setting. If a page has images, tables,
  80 % headings or paragraph breaks which make it shorter than that page
  81 % length, LaTeX will pad the page by adding whitespace between
  82 % elements. We thought that looked sillier than having pages be
  83 % different lengths, so we used the raggedbottom command.
