To stretch right column by #1 add command \vskip-#1 just before % command \end{document}. % TO shrink right column by #1 add command \vskip#1 just before % command \end{document}. % Example: \vskip-10pt % \end{document} % % \changes{1997/05/16}{first version} % \changes{1997/09/09}{support for compatibility with cuted.sty} % \changes{1997/10/01}{\vipersep changed to \stripsep for compatibility with cuted.sty} % \NeedsTeXFormat{LaTeX2e} \ProvidesPackage{flushend}[1997/10/01] % \newbox\@aaa \newbox\@ccc \@ifundefined{@viper}{\newbox\@viper}{} \@ifundefined{hold@viper}{\newbox\hold@viper}{} \newtoks\atColsBreak \atColsBreak={} \newdimen\@extra@skip \@extra@skip\z@ \newdimen\@nd@page@rule \@nd@page@rule\z@ \def\last@outputdblcol{% \if@firstcolumn \global \@firstcolumnfalse \global \setbox\@leftcolumn \box\@outputbox \else \global \@firstcolumntrue \if@lastpage \@tempdima\ht\@leftcolumn \splittopskip\topskip\splitmaxdepth\maxdepth \setbox\@tempboxa\vbox{% \unvbox\@leftcolumn\setbox0\lastbox\unskip% \the\atColsBreak% \unvbox\@outputbox\setbox0\lastbox\unskip}% \@tempdimb .5\ht\@tempboxa% \loop \setbox\@aaa\copy\@tempboxa% \setbox\@ccc\vbox to\@tempdimb{% \vsplit\@aaa to\@tempdimb\vss\vsplit\@aaa to\@tempdimb}% \wlog{Extra height:\the\ht\@aaa\space when \the\@tempdimb}% \ifvoid\@aaa \else \advance\@tempdimb 1pt \repeat% \loop \setbox\@aaa\copy\@tempboxa% \setbox\@ccc\vbox to\@tempdimb{% \vsplit\@aaa to\@tempdimb\vss}% \wlog{(2)Left:\the\ht\@ccc\space Right:\the\ht\@aaa\space Output:\the\@tempdimb}% \ifdim \ht\@ccc<\ht\@aaa \@tempdimb \the\ht\@aaa \repeat% \wlog{- LAST -^^JExtra skip:\the\@extra@skip^^JLeft:\the\ht\@ccc^^JRight:\the\ht\@aaa^^JOutput:\the\@tempdimb}% \setbox\@ccc\vbox to\@tempdimb{% \vsplit\@tempboxa to\@tempdimb\vss}% \setbox\@leftcolumn\vbox to\@tempdima{% \vbox to\@tempdimb{\unvbox\@ccc}% \hrule\@height\@nd@page@rule% \vss}% \setbox\@outputbox\vbox to\@tempdima{% \vbox to\@tempdimb{\unvbox\@tempboxa\vfilneg\vskip\@extra@skip}% \hrule\@height\@nd@page@rule% \vss}% \setbox\@outputbox \vbox {% \hb@xt@\textwidth {% \hb@xt@\columnwidth {% \box\@leftcolumn \hss}% \hfil \vrule \@width\columnseprule \hfil \hb@xt@\columnwidth {% \box\@outputbox \hss}% }% }% \else \setbox\@outputbox \vbox {% \hb@xt@\textwidth {% \hb@xt@\columnwidth {% \box\@leftcolumn \hss}% \hfil \vrule \@width\columnseprule \hfil \hb@xt@\columnwidth {% \box\@outputbox \hss}% }% }% \fi \ifvoid\hold@viper \else \setbox\@outputbox \vbox{\box\hold@viper\box\@outputbox}% \fi \@combinedblfloats \@outputpage \begingroup \@dblfloatplacement \@startdblcolumn \@whilesw\if@fcolmade \fi {\@outputpage \@startdblcolumn}% \ifvoid\@viper \else \global\setbox\@viper\vbox{% \vskip-\stripsep\unvbox\@viper}\@viperoutput \fi \endgroup \fi } \let\prev@enddocument\enddocument \newif\if@lastpage \@lastpagefalse \def\enddocument{\global\@lastpagetrue\let\@outputdblcol\last@outputdblcol\prev@enddocument} \def\raggedend{\global\let\enddocument\prev@enddocument} \def\flushend{\gdef\enddocument{\global\@lastpagetrue\let\@outputdblcol\last@outputdblcol\prev@enddocument}} \def\showcolsendrule{\global\@nd@page@rule=.4pt} \endinput
