Others ⇒ I can't include images in a XeLatex a0poster

[saka]

Hi all,

I'm using XeLatex to compile a a0poster in landscape mode. I was simply using Latex, but with the pstricks package, I couldn't get any result, so I switched to XeLatex.
Now that I want to include images, I get an error message saying that the \includegraphics command is an undefined sequence. I don't understand since I included the graphixs package.

Thanks in advance !

Hi and welcome.

with the given information, any advice is hard to give. Did you load package graphicx?

Please try to boil your document down to a minimal working example. This gives us exactly what we need to know in order to help you. You can find a pretty good tutorial at How to create a minimal working example.

Hi Johannes_B,

Thank you for the advices, I will try to stick to them in my next post. Instead of putting my code this time, I will simply say for the next persons that will have the same issue, XeLatex can perfectly include images with the same classical command and options. The reason I was getting errors on \includegraphics is that I was skipping a line. I simply deleted it and everything worked fine !

May be XeLatex doesn't like much skipping lines, I don't know. I was really surprised !

For future reference, this question was also posted at MathemaTeX.net.

I don't know what you mean by skipping a line - a line break in the code, which acts like a white space and so separates things, or an empty line, which means a paragraph break which doesn't fit at certain places. Such as breaking the paragraph in a file name Generally, some things belong to the same paragraph, so for example a math environment should not contain an empty line.
