Text Formatting ⇒ Language of "Figure"

[meysam]

When i compile my manuscript, the automatic numbering of figures are not in English. it is like:
Figura 1: [Caption]
how can i say it to use simple English as Figure or Fig.

by the way, i am using:
\usepackage[english,portuguese]{babel}

is there any relations?

You could switch to english, or redefine portugese names, such as by

Code: Select all

\addto\captionsportuguese{\renewcommand*{\figurename}{Fig.}}
