Graphics, Figures & Tables ⇒ inserted image is somehow invisible

[mkrlatex]

I inserted an image using the following code, but the image doesn't show up.

Code: Select all

%somehow the image doesn't show up!
\begin{figure}[h!]
\begin{center}
\includegraphics[width=7cm,natwidth=610,natheight=642]{flowchart.pdf}
\caption{G2P Flowchart} 
\label{flowchart}
\end{center}
\end{figure}

Please help.

[Johannes_B]

Please test the following.

Code: Select all

\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{graphicx}
\begin{document}
\begin{figure}%[h!]% Don't make your text ugly please.
	\centering% JB: Never use the center environment in a figure
		\includegraphics[width=7cm]{example-image.pdf}
		\caption{G2P Flowchart}
		\label{flowchart}
\end{figure}
\end{document}

What result do you get? Please also upload the log file.

[mkrlatex]

It is my very first time to use MikTeX, and it is all by myself, so please bear with me.

Still got errors, please see the log file attached.

P.S. I am using a template created by others, and this error occurs.

[Johannes_B]

Sems like something in your document just allows eps files. Please check with the editors of the journal.
Are you allowed to distribute the template? If so, please and i can tell you which is the compromising part. But this won't help if the journal just allows eps images to be included.

[mkrlatex]

I have tried with all image formats (jpg, png, pdf, and even eps), but still the image never shows up. Only the caption appears.

[Johannes_B]

Please post a minimal working example.

[mkrlatex]

Thanks a lot, Johannes_B.

Fixed.

The problem was with the userpackage (\usepackage[dvipdfm]{color,graphicx} % for dvipdfm(x)). By removing [dvipdfm] and change the includegraphics line to \includegraphics[width=7cm]{flowchartthen.pdf}, the image shows up nicely.

Thanks a lot for your help,
Makara

Hi Makara,

welcome to the forum!

Indeed, it's very recommendable to not give a driver option, so the graphicx package chooses the correct driver option by itself automatically.
