Include Picture Manually

Post by Lisa1234 »

Hello,

I have a question about including a picture and I cant find any information about it...:(
I am using "moderncv" but the picture is not put in the right place. So I want to put it manually in the top left corner, about 5cm from left, and 5cm from top. How can I do that? Is that even possible?

Thank you for your help:)

Include Picture Manually

Post by Lisa1234 »

After long time I did:

Code: Select all

\usepackage{ graphicx}
\usepackage{eso-pic}


\newcommand\BackgroundPic{
\put(99,325){
\parbox[b][\paperheight]{\paperwidth}{%
\vfill
\includegraphics[scale=0.07]{lisa}%
\vfill
}}}
and in Text:

Code: Select all

\AddToShipoutPicture*{\BackgroundPic}
It works, however I would prefer the picture to be on top of everthing, not in the background...but one cannot have everything
