I am making flowcharts in Visio. i want to include them in latex. For this, i copy image from Visio and then paste them at Paint program and save them as PNG and finally include them. The code is as:

\begin{figure}[H]
\centering
\includegraphics[width=3in,height=3in]{sceneRM.png}
\caption{Figure 4-6 Re-watermarking scenario}
\label{re-wm}
\end{figure}

Problem:
In \includegraphics I have to give width and height of image. This makes the image appearance so bad somewhat enlarged image or blurred images.

what should i do? should i use some other mechanism in which there is no resizing required?

Due to the relation between postscript point (or big point) and pixel you will need a certain scale in every case to make the image appear properly.

Code: Select all

\includegraphics[scale=0.75]{sceneRM}
And by the way, it would be very kind if you use the code button when posting code. It just keeps your post clear and legible.
