What problem does it solve?
LaTeX users often waste time debugging layout issues such as overflowing tables, unnecessary landscape pages, blank pages, poor float placement, and page-split lists. This skill provides a diagnostic workflow and proven fix patterns to identify and address these issues efficiently.
Core Features & Use Cases
- Automated layout diagnosis: detects overfull hboxes, orphaned headings, and floats not near their references.
- Step-by-step fix guidance: recommends patterns from fix-patterns.md to collapse multi-page floats, merge small tables, or wrap blocks to prevent page splits.
- Verification and guidance: guides recompilation and verification to ensure warnings are resolved and page count is optimized.
- Use case: you are preparing a LaTeX report and want to reduce wasted space while preserving readability and structure.
