Graphics, Figures & Tables ⇒ textpos | Unwanted white Space

[jossojjos]

Dear all,

I'm trying to create a little "photo booklet". For this, I'd like to have pictures than span a page exactly ; I thought textpos would be suitable for this.

Here's the code for the document (created with lyx) :

Code: Select all

\documentclass[oneside,english]{book}
\usepackage[OT1]{fontenc}
\usepackage[latin9]{inputenc}
\usepackage[paperwidth=148mm,paperheight=210mm]{geometry}
\geometry{verbose,tmargin=0cm,bmargin=0cm,lmargin=0cm,rmargin=0cm,headheight=0cm,headsep=0cm,footskip=0cm}
\setcounter{secnumdepth}{3}
\setcounter{tocdepth}{3}
\usepackage{graphicx}

\makeatletter
%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% User specified LaTeX commands.
\usepackage[showboxes,absolute,overlay]{textpos}
% A5 page : 148 × 210 mm
\textblockorigin{0mm}{0mm}
\setlength{\TPHorizModule}{148mm}
\setlength{\TPVertModule}{210mm}

\makeatother

\usepackage{babel}

\begin{document}

\title{Zuid Amerika 2009}

\maketitle
\begin{textblock}{1}[0,0](0,0)

\includegraphics[width=1\paperwidth]{0352}

\end{textblock}
\end{document}

However, the picture appears with some white space at the left. Apparently, this space is inside the textblock. How to get this picture spanning an entire page ?

Thanks in advance,
Jos

Hi Jos,

the paragraph indentation causes this white space. You can prevent this by writing \noindent right before \includegraphics.
