Image to the paper edge

Post by zaradek »

Is it possible to put an image onto a page witch overstep the margins and keep to the edge of the paper? I want to do it without changing the look of the header made by fancyhdr and other text on the page.

Hi zaradek,

welcome to this board!
Have a look at the textpos package.

Hi Stefan,

Thanks for your answer.
As I see textpos is good to put images into the background of the text. LaTeX doesn't consider it in the making-up.
But I could solve it with \centerline:

Code: Select all

\begin{figure}
\centerline{\includegraphics[width=\paperwidth]{Filename}}
\caption{Caption}
\end{figure}
