Hi all
Can you please explain this paragraph taken from here?

If a page has a ragged bottom, the resulting distance is the largest of:
basic-distance,
minimum-distance, and
padding plus the smallest distance necessary to eliminate collisions
%%%%%%
Does it mean that it will take the largest value between those three?
Yes.
I read the french translation to see how it was interpreted and it
seems to suggest that the distance is the _sum_ of the three values
(if I understand correctly.. my french is very basic).
To me it reads like an appropriate rendition. French ‘maximum’ would
exactly correspond to English ‘largest’.
Yours, Simon
