One more comment: I saw that I have a dot at the end of _SOME_ tex entries but not at the end of all of them. I could change it manually, but it is over 350 entries... :/

Hi,

I am writing my PhD thesis and need to hand it in tomorrow evening!

In the last minute I found two problems (using TexnicCenter & JabRef & MikTex).

First the easy one: the bibliographical references appear slightly wrong, after the title of the publications there is a dot AND a comma. E.g. G ...

Hi,

Stefan_K: you were right, \dcapprovalbaffil was not properly defined! Sorry, I did not manage to get this info out of the error message, which was a bit cryptic.

Manual tweaking helps for sure, but I ...

Hi again,

Thank you for the answers.

localghost: maybe I explained the problem wrong. The problem is not in one single page, it happens several times all along the 130 pages of the document! The image I uploaded was just one extreme example.

I added the \raggedbottom, the output is different (see ...

Hi,

I am writing my PhD, learning Latex at the same time, and after 130 pages feeling already like a medium-level user :)

Still, there is something which drives me crazy, and I have no idea why this happens. The spacing (vertical blank space before start of text) is not constant throughout the ...
