output .pdf/.dvi problem

Post by fenimor_cooper »

Hello,
i've got the following issue: the inserted .eps figure is seen only in .ps output file. It is not seen in .pdf neither in .dvi. In these two formats I see only the caption and the blank space reserved for the figure. Any suggestions? I need to see it .pdf :cry: Thanks for your help! Below is what exactly I typed in the .tex file.
------------------------------
\documentclass{kapmono}
\usepackage{m-times}
\usepackage{amsfonts}
\usepackage{amsmath}
\usepackage{amsthm}
\usepackage{amssymb}
\usepackage[dvips]{graphicx}
...
\begin{document}
...
\begin{figure}[!h]
%[htbp]
\centering
\includegraphics[width=15cm, height=10cm]{Figure1.eps}
\caption{On this figure: ... channel 5.}
\end{figure}
...
\end{document}

Convert your eps to pdf with eps2pdf... Btw, you don't have to specify the extension: with pdfoutput=1, the compiler will choose figure1.pdf, and with pdfoutput=0, it will choose figure1.eps. Also, you don't have to give the width or height of your figure, if the bounding box is correct, unless you want to do some special trick.
