Hello all,
I'm trying to insert a figure into a document. However, the figure is too large to fit as is, so I've cropped the image using the viewport option for \includegraphics. While this makes the figure fit on the page, the figure caption is now overlaid on top of the figure (towards the bottom, but obviously not quite where I need it to be).
If anybody has any insights about a fix (e.g., how to specify the position of a caption), that would be marvelous!
Here's the relevant code:
\begin{landscape}
\begin{figure}[h]
\begin{center}
\includegraphics[viewport = 250 200 550 500]{figure}
\caption{the offending figure caption}
\label{fig:figure}
\end{center}
\end{figure}
\end{landscape}
General ⇒ Figure caption appears on top of figure after cropping

Figure caption appears on top of figure after cropping
Hi TheCOG,
welcome to the LaTeX Community board!
The caption package could be useful for you. It provides many features and much flexibility and is well documented.
By the way: I would not use \begin{center} ... \end{center}, I prefer \centering instead, because the center environment produces additional vertical space, in your case probably even more unwanted.
