What does "{%" (a brace followed by a percent) mean, and what is it called if I want to find the documentation for it?

Here is an example.

\newcommand{\atest}
{%

\includegraphics[width=1in]{./icpw logo spaced.PNG}\Joe Dirt\1 Lambda Street\Anyplace, NY 12345
}

    This is just to suppress spurious spaces. –  Nov 13 '21 at 04:15
  • bracket is not a part of the %, that bracket lines up with the one in the end, that bracket seems (to me) that is a part of \newcommand syntax.. – NotStanding with GoGotaHome Nov 13 '21 at 04:29

    Note that the empty line inside your \atest definition is probably unwanted and might do harm (that is an implicit \par token you're putting there, so every time you'd use that macro it would be \par\inludegraphics... instead of just \includegraphics...) – Skillmon Nov 13 '21 at 09:38
