Subject: fixedfloat.sty
I'm trying to generate the LaTeX documentation to go with the
Washington IPA fonts. I've been able to get hold of all the style
files it uses bar one, fixedfloat.sty. Could someone mail me a copy,
which I can use for both the documentation and to insert into the
archive?
Many thanks in advance.
