The main problem with overrides is that it will make
changes later that will be difficult to find and/or fix.
Is there a way to find overrides, other than examining each paragraph
individually?
Is there a way to remove all overrides from a document in a single
operation? I guess one way is to

One way to find overrides is to create a special template that is
identicial to your standard template, but with all fonts set to a bright
colour you don't normally use. When you apply the special template, the
overrides show up as unchanged black text.

If I'm writing a typical user manual, my preferred solution for pagination
overrides is to float tables and figures. Floating rarely produces pagination
problems--that's the main purpose of floating, as far as I can tell. I give
tables and figures numbered titles and I'm careful to cite each one
Floating figures and tables are useful for automating page breaks,

always immediately follow the reference. Can anyone help me understand
where this rule originated?

I don't see how it's possible to develop a template that gives you a
flawless page. I find it's a judgment call to decide how many rows of a
particular table to keep on a page or to move to the next page.
Is it possible to tell FM that if there are 5 or less rows in a table,
move the whole
I keep my overrides to pagination-related overrides. Removing these
overrides will only affect the pagination, which I check anyway before
completing a book. The main problem with overrides is that it will make
changes later that will be difficult to find and/or fix.
Having said that, if I

I'm really bothered by the Top of Page as an override, because if we
add text to the front end, that override is going to force a Top of
Page we might not want.
Create a special paragraph format called PageBreak. Give it a large Space:
Below Pgf: value, say 600 pt. Then insert this paragraph
