\startpostponing

\startpostponing[n] ... \stoppostponing

Description

The contents of the block are not typeset immediately, but are inserted into the stream on a specific page (e.g. \startpostponing[2]) or a specific number of pages after the current one (e.g. \startpostponing[+2]). Most commonly used for figures or tables that one wishes to put on the next page.
