Frequently figures do not fill the full pagewidth. If the width of such figures is only half of the pagewidth or even less, textlines should be set beside the figures, or – from another point of view – figures should `float' in paragraphs. This article presents the L^ATEX style option FLOATFIG which can be used to set such Floating Figures as easily as L^ATEX's standard figures.
