Re: subimages - one below another

If you have them inside a figure float, I believe adding a simple line break will put them one below the other (ie press "Enter").

For figure floats that are 'bumped' to a new page, the figure graphic is vertically centered, and the caption below. In some cases, this forces the caption past the bottom margin, overwriting the page number. There appears to be sufficient white space at the top of the page that if the figure ...
