Text Formatting ⇒ Odd Page Numbering

[Urielnam]

Hello all,
I'm writing in LaTeX and so far it's been great. Though right now I'm having an odd problem.
my setup is

Code: Select all

\documentclass[10pt,twoside]{memoir}
\stockaiv
\pageaiv
\usepackage{geometry}
\usepackage[latin1]{inputenc}
\usepackage{amsmath}
\usepackage{amsfonts}
\usepackage{amssymb}
\usepackage{graphicx}

But, on normal pages the numbering is at the center of the page. on pages with figures on the the numbering goes to the upper right/left (depends on the page "direction")

I'm attaching the figures with

Code: Select all

\begin{figure}
  \centering
   \includegraphics[width=110mm]{somethin.eps} 
   \caption{somethin something}
  \label{fig:somethin}
\end{figure}

If you'd be so kind to point out what I'm doing wrong?
I'd like to have all my pages numbered through their bottom.

Thanks
Urielnam.

Hi and welcome to the forum.

By default, page numbers and headings are placed in headers when using memoir class, except for the first page of a chapter on which the page number is placed in the footer, centered. I don't think it has anything to do with figures. You can change that by (re)defining page styles either using memoir's own mechanism (as in the example below), or using fancyhdr package. But, since you haven't provided a full compilable Minimal Working Example (MWE), we can only be guessing if page style was the problem. Here's a simple example to get you going. If you need anything else, ask. Also, you might search the forum for instructions how to change page styles as well as memoir's (chapter 7) and/or fancyhdr's documentation. Happy LaTeXing

Code: Select all

\documentclass{memoir}

\usepackage[demo]{graphicx}% “Demo” option is for testing only; remove it to include real pictures

\makepagestyle{main}% A new page style for “normal” pages
\makeoddfoot{main}{}{\thepage}{}% Footer for odd pages
\makeevenfoot{main}{}{\thepage}{}% Footer for even pages
\pagestyle{main}% Activate the style
