The commands in this chapter allow you to write text that is specially displayed (output format permitting), outside of the normal document flow.
One set of such commands is for creating “floats”, that is, figures, tables, and the like, set off from the main text, possibly numbered, captioned, and/or referred to from elsewhere in the document. Images are often included in these displays.
Another group of commands is for creating footnotes in Texinfo.
