Dear all,

I have a question about a warning that I have been getting frequently
while compiling revtex4 documents. I usually get this kind of warning:

LaTeX Warning: A float is stuck (cannot be placed) on input line 109.

Could you please tell me what does this warning mean and what is the
way to avoid it?

Best,
Tulasi

probably means it's too big for the page. (doesn't the revtex
documentation tell you?)

however, it's not a latex error -- rather a revtex error, and it could
well be that there's some subtlety i've missed by not having read the
whole of revtex.

isn't there an author's help address on the revtex home page
(somewhere on the aps web site, iirc).
