Can anybody help me?

Thanks in advance

Hi Jordan,

welcome to the board!
I don't get that error with that line of code. Test this example:

I've tried your example and it works, but when I add all those lines... latex error!
If I use the other fancy chapters I don't get this problem.

Can you tell me why?

[Stefan Kottwitz]

Of course there will be the error "Missing \begin{document}" because you don't have a line

I can compile this example without any error message using fncychap.sty 2007/07/30 v1.34. Do you use a different version?

By the way please use the Code button to insert LaTeX code to get more readable posts. I will edit your post above regarding this.

Stefan

[jordan]

ups I'm sorry, this is my first time in this forum.

I've downloaded it from CTAN homepage this morning. I don't understand why it works with other styles of fancy chapters but I have problems with Bjornstrup.

Strage ... you could post your .log file as attachment here, we could examine it.

it works. The problem is I need both .

I've attached the log file. I hope it helps.

[frabjous]

Why do you need both? What can you do with rotating that you can't do with \rotatebox (and similar) from graphicx?
