Command old/setuptolerance

\setuptolerance

Syntax

\setuptolerance[...,...,...]
[...,...,...]	horizontal vertical stretch space verystrict strict tolerant verytolerant

Description

Use \setuptolerance[horizontal,...] for interword spacing and \setuptolerance[vertical,...] for column stretching. Don't try to combine these two.

horizontal is the default orientation, so the following two are equivalent:

\setuptolerance[horizontal,tolerant] and \setuptolerance[tolerant]

In horizontal orientation the keywords have the following effect:

stretch:      \emergencystretch\bodyfontsize
space:        \spaceskip .5em plus .25em minus .25em
verystrict:   \tolerance 200
strict:       \tolerance 1500
tolerant:     \tolerance 3000
verytolerant: \tolerance 4500

in vertical orientation the keywords define a factor "bottomtolerance"
which is only used (?) in columns. The factors are:

verystrict:   0
strict:       0.050
tolerant:     0.075
verytolerant: 0.100
