Page Layout ⇒ Center, Centering Inconsistency

[atomchoco]

Hi,

I'm having a problem in which the images and text I enter, though of the same alignment, do not align properly. I've tried \begin{center} - \end{center} tags and \centering but both exhibit the same problem.

*also, site requires me to log in repeatedly which is utterly annoying

Check the log file for warnings.

Hello Thorsten,

What do you mean? Where do I find the log file? Is there a specific error I should look for to fix this?

Cheers,
Josh

The log file (*.log) is located in the same directory as your source file (*.tex). I'm pretty sure that you get some warnings about "overfull hboxes".

Hi Josh,

I guess your images are too wide. If they are wider than the text width, they cannot be centered.

Either resize the bigger images, such as by

Code: Select all

\includegraphics[width=\textwidth]{filename}

or hide them with a box of smaller width, for example by

Code: Select all

\noindent\makebox[\textwidth]{\includegraphics{filename}}

see perhaps Centering wide tables or figures.

Hello,

Thank you for your responses. I used Stefan's second solution and it worked perfectly. Again, thank you very much.

Cheers,
Josh
