General ⇒ Prevent images from resizing

[rianquinn]

Every time I insert an image, the image is resized to fit the page. I'm using the following:

Code: Select all

\begin{center}
    \includegraphics{picture.png}
\end{center}

I do not want to specify the size of the image explicitly because the image sizes vary, and I have a lot of them. How do I tell LaTeX to just use the image's actual size?

Try a certain scaling factor to resize the image manually.

Code: Select all

\begin{figure}[!ht]
  \centering
  \inludegraphics[scale=0.75]{picture}
  \caption{Image caption}\label{fig:picture}
\end{figure}

The factor comes from the relation between Pixel and Postscript Point.

Thanks very much.

What is the scale factor with regards to. Does it scale based on the image, or the paper. What I prefer is that it scales based on the picture. I take screenshots a lot, and I don't like it when LaTeX distorts the picture. I generally make sure the screenshot will fit on the document.
