How to get the endfloat package to work with new float types defined using \newfloat (float package):
\newfloat{map}{htbp}{lom}
\floatname{map}{Map}
\restylefloat*{map}

\newfloat{photo}{htbp}{lop}
\floatname{photo}{Photo}
Now, endfloat will send my figures and tables to the end, but not the maps ...

The manual does not indicate the "volumes" field as being valid and I tried it out unsuccessfully with a couple of styles.

What, then, is the best way to handle the number of volumes within an entry type like Techreport? Should I use the "note" field: e.g. note = {4 Volumes}?

Anyone know if one can use the Volumes field to indicate the number of volumes in a work, within the Techreport type? Does this depend on whether an individual style uses the field? Are there any that do?

Printing with Accrobat 6 solves our problem.

I am having problems have large reports printed with lots of included graphics that were generated with PDFLaTeX using MiKTeX 2.9. My printer from the local copy centre reports that he gets a postscript error with some of my included graphics pages (certain large jpegs, not all) refusing to print ...

Using height and width, I am able to "include" 11 X 17 in pdfs, but not to put them on a 11 X 17 in page within my PDF document created by LaTeX.

The question is how to get \includegraphics to create the single oversized page.

Any further ideas would be appreciated.

Thanks

Thanks Stephan.

I understand that \includegraphics allows pdfs and use this ability all the time--my problem is how do I insert an "oversized" page (11 X 17 in) in a lettersize report.

Thanks

I want to insert a singe 11 X 17 in sheet with graphics in an 8.5 X 11 in report. I have been using the wonderful package, pdfpages, to do this. However, now I would like to insert this page as a float, so that I can insert it in running text rather than at the end of a chapter or within an appendix ...
