Proper or correct way to display tables, figures, illustrations

[Oliver Corff]

Dear All,

currently I am working on a large translation, the text contains a
number of illustrations, figures and tables.

I am using the macro package mm.

What is the canonical way to display a title/and or small caption (like
"Table 1: Distribution of Events over Time")?

In my earlier work, I used to hard-code the table title directly into
the table definition, but I do not know whether this is the preferred way.

The UTP Manual does not elaborate on these issues --- probably because
this is a question of style rather than technical functionality, I assume.

Thanks a lot for any clarification,

Oliver.
