I have created a minimal example here:
http://alexandervanloon.nl/bibliografie.bib (bibliography file for biblatex)
http://alexandervanloon.nl/demonstration.tex (source file)
http://alexandervanloon.nl/demonstration.pdf (resulting PDF document)

As you can see, in the Bibliography chapter the header ...

Thanks a ton, using your code fixed the problem. Now the text in both columns is aligned at equal height on all pages, just like the articles in the scientific journals. I had absolutely no idea that the parskip variable was the culprit, I’ll write a blog post about it so the world will know.

Recently I’ve created a few LaTeX documents with two columns with the multicol package. However, I noticed that multicol gives PDF-documents which display ugly white space between the paragraphs. For an example, please take a look at:

Take a look at the right ...

Fixed, see the tex file and the resulting PDF document again.

It became apparent that the tables where placed inside the multicols environment as I added more text to my document. When I simply placed my first table closer to the beginning of the document, LaTeX placed it where I wanted it. All ...

Please take a look at my tex file and the resulting PDF document . It's a document in the Dutch language, by the way.

It uses the memoir article class, and sections are used instead of chapters as is supposed to if I'm correct.

In the bottom of the document I placed the \printbibliography command ...

Thanks for your help. I used the /listfiles command and noticed that my memoir version was indeed outdated. To update my memoir package let me tell me exactly what I did, so other newbies who read this won't be confused.

First go to the aforementioned memoir page on CTAN and the page on the LaTeX ...

I appreciate the help localghost, but you linked to the same article as I did in my post. In my post I described how I used an example from that document, which gave me the error messages I mentioned. This led to me to the question if this is caused by the memoir version which I'm using being out of ...

I have a one-sided document using the memoir document class. By default chapters open with an empty header and the page number in the footer (AFAIK the plain page style according to the memoir manual) and the following pages of the chapter use by default an empty footer and the page number in the ...

Thank you very much, that's an easy and effective solution. However, that package doesn't seem to be used in the source of memoir class manual. Any idea how it got an index in the PDF document there without using hyperref, are there other ways to do it?
