IEEEconf | Table spanning two Columns

Post by amitsalunke »

Hi,

I am writing a paper in IEEEconf format with two column format style sheet downloaded from IEEE site. I have table/image which is fairly large in size. I need to span that table/image over two columns of IEEE style sheet.

I used following format which is not working. I tried to wrap in figure tag it works but image appears at the end of paper.

Code: Select all

\begin{table}[H]
\begin{center}
\begin{tabular*}
....
\end{tabular*}
\caption{...}
\label{Table:table4}
\end{center}
\end{table}
Thanks in advance.

Amit

If the IEEEconf manual has no useful solution, just try the figure* environment from the LaTeX kernel.


Best regards and welcome to the board

Thanks for the solution. It definitely works, but how could I fix the position the table/picture? As I said it appears at the end of the paper. I want to its position of image/table in paper

I've fixed it just removing [h] from the {table} environment. Once removed it, the table appears inside the paper and not at the end of it.
