descriptionlistspage-breaking
I have a simple List in the description Environment.
\begin{description}
\item [item] number one
\item [item] number two
\end{description}
there is a new new page between the first item and the second. Is there a way to prevent this? I'd rather have the complete list coherent on a new page.
You can use the enumitem package to customize the description environment, e.g.
\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{enumitem}
\begin{document}
\begin{description}[leftmargin=8em,style=nextline]
\item[Something] Text. More text.More text.More text. More text. More text. More text. More text. More text. More text. More text. More text. More text.
\item[Ought else] More text.
\end{description}
\end{document}
You can set this for all description environments (probably not desirable) with
\setlist[description]{leftmargin=8em,style=nextline}
or you can define your own list environment e.g.
\newlist{NewDesc}{description}{2}
\setlist[NewDesc]{leftmargin=8em,style=nextline}
and use as
\begin{NewDesc}
\item[Something] Text. More text.More text.More text. More text. More text. More text. More text. More text. More text. More text. More text. More text.
\item[Ought else] More text.
\end{NewDesc}
Use \footenotemark inside the item's optional argument and \footnotetext outside.
\documentclass{article}
\textheight=80pt% just for the example
\begin{document}
Text text text.\footnote{This footnote is working.}
\begin{description}
\item[Label\footnotemark]\footnotetext{This footnote is working, too.} Some description
\end{description}
\end{document}
