Graphics, Figures & Tables ⇒ Pstricks-add figure and jpg-file in same document

[voorneveld]

I drew a color figure using pstricks-add and would like to include, in the same file, a color jpg-file (centered, with caption, and rescaled to have height 6cm). Despite surfing around, I cannot get both to work...

The code for the working pstricks-add figure is (minimized: the original picture has more stuff in it):

Code: Select all

\documentclass{article}

\usepackage{pstricks-add}

\begin{document}

\begin{figure}[h]
\begin{center}
\begin{pspicture}(0,0)(4,5)
\psaxes{->}(4,4)[$x_1$,0][$x_2$,90]
\psplot[algebraic,plotpoints=1000]{1.303}{3}{x-sqrt(3-x)}
\psplot[algebraic,plotpoints=1000]{0}{3}{x+sqrt(3-x)}
\psset{linecolor=blue}
\qdisk(1,2.4142){1pt}
\psline{->}(1,2.4142)(2.5,3)
\end{pspicture}
\end{center}
\end{figure}

\end{document} 

The file I would like to include is the jpg-file attached to this question.

How do I do this?

Thanks!

You can have both by using the auto-pst-pdf package and compiling with pdflatex. Consider the following example.

Code: Select all

\documentclass[11pt,a4paper,english]{article}
\usepackage[T1]{fontenc}
\usepackage[utf8]{inputenc}
\usepackage{babel}
\usepackage[font=small,labelfont=bf,tableposition=top]{caption}
\usepackage{graphicx}
\usepackage{pstricks-add}
\usepackage{auto-pst-pdf}

\pagestyle{empty}

\begin{document}
  \begin{figure}[!ht]
    \centering
    \begin{pspicture}[showgrid=false](-1,-1)(5,5)
      \psaxes{->}(4,4)[$x_1$,0][$x_2$,90]
      \psplot[algebraic,plotpoints=1000]{1.303}{3}{x-sqrt(3-x)}
      \psplot[algebraic,plotpoints=1000]{0}{3}{x+sqrt(3-x)}
      \psset{linecolor=blue}
      \qdisk(1,2.4142){1pt}
      \psline{->}(1,2.4142)(2.5,3)
    \end{pspicture}
    \caption{Your \textsf{PSTricks} figure}\label{fig:pstricks}
  \end{figure}

  \begin{figure}[!ht]
    \centering
    \includegraphics[height=6cm]{stairs}
    \caption{The included graphics file in JPG format}\label{fig:jpg}
  \end{figure}
\end{document}

To get this work, you have to call the compiler with the switch that enables shell escape.

Code: Select all

pdflatex -shell-escape jobname.tex

Adapt the settings of your LaTeX editor according to your LaTeX distribution. Concerning shell escape, there are differences between MiKTeX and TeX Live. Pay special attention to the remarks in the pst-pdf manual (although this package is not included).


Best regards and welcome to the board

I had to install Perl (http://www.activestate.com/activeperl/) and use the switch --shell-escape (with two hyphens before shell) to get this to work, but now it works perfectly. Thank you!
