Graphics, Figures & Tables ⇒ Insert JPEG Images

[peaches2165]

Hi,

Could someone please give me step by step instructions on how to input a jpeg file into a \documentclass[12pt]{article}?

Thanks,

Peaches

Load the graphicx package in the preamble of your document and compile with PDFLaTeX. For details refer to its manual.

me, i use this :

Code: Select all

\begin{figure}  
\begin{center} 
\includegraphics[width=\linewidth]{mypicture.jpg}
\end{center}
\caption{my comments.}
\label{referenceForText} 
\end{figure}

good luck

I would improve this code part a bit:

Code: Select all

\begin{figure}[ht]% more options to ease placement - maximum: !htbp
  \centering% since \begin{center} ... \end{center} causes additional vertical space
  \includegraphics[width=\linewidth]{mypicture}% .jpg is not necessary
  \caption{my comments}
  \label{referenceForText}
\end{figure}

Perhaps it helps too.
