Graphics, Figures & Tables ⇒ Placing figures

[rophys]

Hello all,

I'm trying to put some figures in the right places in text but is not working.

I'm using the following packages:

Code: Select all

\usepackage{graphicx}
\usepackage{natbib}
\usepackage{float}
\usepackage{varioref}
\usepackage{wrapfig}
\usepackage{dcolumn}
\usepackage{subfigure}
\usepackage{subfigmat}
\usepackage{fancyvrb}
\usepackage{floatrow}

When I compiled the text, the figure is not going to the right position and also is appearing the symbol [t!] close to the figure. I've tried everything =/

This is the code I'm using to place the figure :

Code: Select all

\begin{figure}[t!]
\begin{center}
\includegraphics[keepaspectratio,width=13cm]{./figures/introduction/fig.eps}
\end{center}
\caption{}
\label{fig}
\end{figure} 

Many thanks

I'm trying to put some figures in the right places in text but is not working.

Right places are optimal places for the text flow regarding page breaks. LaTeX does it automatically for you, if you use a figure environment. By specifying options, you can tell LaTeX where to place.

I've tried everything

And what is this, that you tried? Before we continue and recommend what you already did.

This is the code I'm using to place the figure :

Code: Select all

\begin{figure}[t!]
\begin{center}
\includegraphics[keepaspectratio,width=13cm]{./figures/introduction/fig.eps}
\end{center}
\caption{}
\label{fig}
\end{figure}

Sometimes more options are considered better because of easier placement, such as

Code: Select all

\begin{figure}[htbp!]

Btw. I would change \begin{center} ... \end{center} and use \centering instead, see center vs. \centering for an explanation.
