Description

Default table float placement algorithm. The value must contain enclosing square braces ([]). Order is significant, the first match which produces acceptable output is used.

The meaning of the characters are:

h

Meaning: “here”

Place the float where it occurs in the DocBook source.

t

Meaning: “top”

Place the float at the top of the page.

b

Meaning: “bottom”

Place the float at the bottom of the page.

p

Meaning: “page”

Place the float on a special page just for floats.

Any of the characters may be followed by an exclamation point (!) to force LaTeX to be more aggressive when trying the placement algorithm.

The default value is [htbp].
