I am writing a report with many figures, where usually each figure contains several graphs in one figure environment (i.e. several calls to \includegraphics per figure). I would like to keep the report itself compact, but it would be nice to have sort of an appendix where each graph (i.e. each ...

@cgnieder: Thanks, this seems to be a working solution!

@meho_r: Is there a way to get the authortitle-ibid style to work with \footfullcite ? I get nice "ibids" when I use \footcite , but then I only get the authors' names, nothing else. \footfullcite on the other hand gives the journal etc., but ...

Thanks, meho_r, that did the trick.

However the format of the reference footnotes is still not exactly what I want. I'd like to achieve the following two things:

(1)
Format of the footnotes:
<author1>, <author2>, <author3>, and <author4>, <journal name> (<year>), <vol>, <pages>
I do not want the ...

I'd like to put the references in footnotes on the same page where they are used. I've found that \usepackage[style=authortitle]{biblatex} in the preamble together with \footfullcite achieves this. Alternatively one can use \usepackage[style=footnote-dw]{biblatex} together with the normal \cite ...

I now came up with a (somewhat complicated) solution to the problem.

I start off with an Origin 8 graph and a sketch drawn in Inkscape (which should become an inset of the graph).


Export graph and sketch as PDF.
Use above LaTeX code to merge the two PDFs (overlay the sketch onto the graph ...

Hi gmedina,

thanks for your reply, but I don't see how overpic would help. If I use it to create a PDF from separate PDF images, I run into the same troubles as before when I try to convert the PDF into an EPS. If I use overpic to merge EPS files, the images are put on top of each other, without ...

I'd like to merge two figures, where the second one (created by Inkscape) should become an inset to the first one (which is a graph made in Origin 8). They should overlap, however, i.e. transparencey is required. The final output needs to be an EPS file.

My only solution so far was to create two ...

Great, that did the job, also in my LyX file. Thanks!

You were right, Thorsten, after upgrading to Ubuntu 10.04 my MWE gave a satisfying result. However, in my thesis (written in LyX) the problem persisted. I have now reduced my thesis to another LaTeX MWE, which shows the problem:

\documentclass[12pt,oneside,headsepline,tablecaptionabove]{scrbook ...

Thanks, Thorsten, that sounds very plausible.

Here's what I got:
