Graphics, Figures & Tables ⇒ Inclusion of external Graphics File fails

[yperionas]

Dear all,
I am trying to add a .pdf image in a pdf page output with no success. Iam using the following commands:

Code: Select all

\documentclass[11pt,b5paper,twoside]{article}
\usepackage{graphicx}
\usepackage{epstopdf}
\begin{document}
\includegraphics[width=1.5cm\textwidth][height=1.5cm\textheight]{./bla.pdf}
\end{document}

and I get the error:

Code: Select all

! Paragraph ended before \Gin@iii was complete.

As you can see I am using the graphicx package. I have tried converting an eps to a pdf and compiling with Latex with no success and I have also tried compiling with a .pdf image and PDFlatex as you you can see above, again with no success.

I have run out of ideas... Any help would be much appreciated!

The part:

Code: Select all

[width=1.5cm\textwidth][height=1.5cm\textheight]

uses the wrong syntax. I can't really understand what 1.5cm\textwidth is even supposed to mean, but the correct syntax would be something like:

Code: Select all

\includegraphics[width=1.5cm,height=1.5cm]{bla.pdf}

or perhaps:

Code: Select all

\includegraphics[width=0.5\textwidth,height=0.5\textwidth]{bla.pdf}

frabjous thank you very much for the tip. You are right the syntax you have proposed fixed the error. Thankfully there are people like you around having more experience to help.
