Graphics, Figures & Tables ⇒ Inclusion of EPS Figures

[peaches20]

Hi,

I have a paper that has a number of EPS files and am having trouble running them on windows. I have MiKTeX 2.9. My sample code is like this.

Code: Select all

\documentclass[12pt]{article}      

\makeatletter\@addtoreset{equation}{section}
\def\theequation{\thesection.\arabic{equation}}

\usepackage{graphicx}
\usepackage{xcolor}
\usepackage{amsmath}
\usepackage{amsxtra}
\usepackage{amssymb}
\usepackage{amsfonts}
\usepackage{mathrsfs}
\usepackage{latexsym}
\usepackage{bm}
\usepackage{topcapt}
\usepackage{booktabs}
\usepackage{stmaryrd}
\usepackage{hyperref}

and my input is

Code: Select all

\begin{figure}[h]
\includegraphics[width=8cm]{schemagen.eps}
\caption{Schemati}
\label{Gen}
\end{figure}

Any advice is welcome.

Thanks,

Peaches

You should specify this trouble. Are there any warnings or error messages? Note that EPS files are only accepted by LaTeX and XeLaTeX, not by PDFLaTeX. If you want to compile with the PDFTeX typesetting engine, you will need to convert the files to PDF. For conversion of those files "on the fly" load the epstopdf package and obey the instructions in its manual. As far as I know it will need Ghostscript installed. More specific solutions can be found by a Forum Search.

By the way, there is a much smarter method to get equations numbered by sections in the article class.

Code: Select all

%\makeatletter
%\@addtoreset{equation}{section}
%\makeatother
%\def\theequation{\thesection.\arabic{equation}}
\numberwithin{equaton}{section}   % provided by »amsmath«

Of course to be put after loading amsmath.


Best regards and welcome to the board

There are no errors, just warnings (and bad boxes). At the moment we have no appropriate description of the problem. Not to mention a proper minimal example. What is wrong with the output? At least the log file does not show any irregularities.

I've gotten to the next step but am now encountering

Seeing the last error I guess the DVI viewer has problems with rendering PostScript. Though the DVI viewer can display some PostScript, it's not his job, so it can fail rendering . Use a PostScript viewer, such as gsview, or convert to PDF via dvips and ps2pdf (for example) and open the PDF output.
