Hello all,
I am creating a book using book class with MikTex. As i am new to latex, I don't know how to add a "chapter image", which is already stored as .eps format, instead of \chapter command.
\chapter{Introduction} -- produces a style which I really don't want.
So, if i delete the \chapter command from my code, the section number starts from 0.1,0.2... and so on.
0.1 Introduction to chapter
0.2 General Issues
Hence I need to insert the chapter figure and as well as I need the section to start from numbering
1.1 Introduction to chapter
1.2 General Issues
I don't use any kind of special packages.. If there is any that I really want to use.. please give me a example of the same..
Thanks in advance..

Chapter numbering problem..
You could incorporate this image by using the titlesec package. Or just insert an image at the place you want a new chapter to begin and increase the chapter counter.
Best regards
Thorsten
Code: Select all
\stepcounter{chapter}

Re: Chapter numbering problem..
Hello friends,
I am continuosly facing problem while adding "EPS" instead of my chapter name.
I have already designed the chapter name and chapter title in that EPS file, which is "Chapter-01.EPS". When I include that file, instead of "\chapter" command the remaining section numbering starts from 0.1 instead of 1.1.
Since I have 2 chapters, i have added the chapter titles to both of the chapters. After adding the chapter figures to individual chapters, the table of content takes the both chapters as a single chapter.
So, ultimately what i want is, while adding the chapter figures the section numbering should be as follows.
1.1 Introduction
1.1.1 Basic...
1.2 Addit...
.
.
.
2.1 Intro...
2.2 General...
.
.
.
and my table of contents should be according to the chapters. I've added the ".tex" file..
Thanks in advance...

Chapter numbering problem..
Please read my first reply. Omit the figure environment around the included image because the image shall not float. Paper and page dimensions are better set with geometry.
