Graphics, Figures & Tables ⇒ Problem using pstricks and \includegraphics

[Lenin Arango]

I want to use these to ways to create a figure in my document:
A)

Code: Select all

\begin{figure}[H]
\begin{center}
\subfigure[ Simulation T=10]{
\includegraphics[scale=.3]{Question1_partb_t10.png}
}
\subfigure[Simulation T=100 ]{
\includegraphics[scale=.3]{Question1_partb_t100.png}
}
\end{center}
\caption{Simulated power functions} \label{fig:2}
\end{figure}

B)

Code: Select all

\begin{figure}[H]
\vspace{7cm}
%\centering
\hspace{5cm}
\begin{pspicture}(0,0)
\psset{xunit=10pt,yunit=10pt}
\psaxes[labels=none,ticks=none]{->}(0,0)(0,0)(20,20)
\pscurve[linecolor=blue]{}(1,18)(8,8)(20,3)
\end{pspicture}
\vspace{0.5cm}
\caption{The labor market. Indivisible labor}
\end{figure}

But, when I try to compile it, it does not work at all. I use Texmaker as editor and I test different ways in my configuration. Any idea?

Hi,

welcome to the forum!

There are many possible reasons. It would be good if you would post the document preamble, i.e. used packages and settings, so we could tell you the specific cause.

Hi,

See attached the document. I use Texmaker as editor. If I use the configuration
A) PdfLaTeX + ViewPDF - I can insert .png figures, but I cannot draw using pstricks.

B) LaTeX + dvips + ps2pdf + ViewPDF - I can draw but I cannot insert .png images.

Thanks

pdflatex does not work with pstricks, but you can use something like auto-pst-pdf. But you have to run pdflatex with the shell-escape-option.
