Graphics, Figures & Tables ⇒ Problem with fig wrapping

[BoudewijnD]

Hi,

For my chemistry thesis I need to write a experimental wich contains all my compounds. The text how to make them should be wrapped around the figure.

The package warpfig works for one figure. At the second figure it fails. Can some one help me out. I already played with the space in front of the wrapped figure but i really need 2 empty lines.
See the pic of how i want it and in the zip file is my minimal working tex.

Cheers,

I couldn't get your example to work without errors---you may have to specify version numbers for the achemso style (which, by the way, now exists as a class file, which I suggest you use).

I suspect there's something wrong with your file, which is why the second figure isn't working. If you get errors messages, don't ignore them---I've seen at least one person report a problem here that was solved by fixing the error messages they got instead of ignoring them.

Remove the newline commands (\\) and start the next paragraph as a real paragraph and it should work:

Code: Select all

[...] 133.7 (CH$_{arom}$), 137.7, 138.0 (Cq$_{arom}$), 167.7, 168.0 (C=O Phth). HRMS: \ce{C34H31NO5S + Na+} requires 588.18151, found 588.18115.


\begin{wrapfigure}[4]{l}{0.2\textwidth}
\includegraphics{cmp4.eps}
% cmp5.eps: 0x0 pixel, 2400dpi, 0.00x0.00 cm, bb=
\vspace{-10pt}
\end{wrapfigure}
\textbf{Benzyl 3,6-di-\textit{O}-benzyl-2-deoxy-2-phthalimido-$\beta$-\textsc{d}-glucopyranoside (4-OH-GluNPhth-OBn).} [...]

You also might consider using the siunitx package to type the amounts and other values with units like temperatures:

Code: Select all

\SI{0}{\celsius} instead of 0\degree C

(which was one point that gave me an error when I tried to compile your file)

Hey Clemens,

The first option worked indeed I have to make really new paragraphs. The only thing is that the first word doesn't start completely left, but with a tab.
Is there an option to fix this??

Thanx for the tip on siunitx i will look in to it. I really like your website, a complete review about chemistry and Latex.

That is because a new paragraph starts with an indent. You could start the paragraph with "\noindent" to suppress the indent. Or, if you're using KOMA classes like "scrartcl" you can use the document option "parskip" to change the behaviour for the whole document.
Compare this:

Code: Select all

\documentclass{scrartcl}
\usepackage{lipsum}
\begin{document}
\lipsum
\end{document}

with this:

Code: Select all

\documentclass[parskip=full]{scrartcl}
\usepackage{lipsum}
\begin{document}
\lipsum
\end{document}

Thanks. I hope to be able to fill it with more useful information in the future...
