Graphics, Figures & Tables ⇒ Aspect Ratio of included Graphics File changes

[vita001]

Hi,

the image is 640x640 (the image file is attached.), and it contains a circle. But when I insert the figure using the following code, the circle looks like an elongated ellipse.

Code: Select all

Run LaTeX here

What causes this problem? any way to fix it?

I tried the provided code and nothing happens to the aspect ratio of the figure; I see the circle, just scaled down.

Thank you for the quick reply.
It turns out that it's not a problem of latex. I connected my macbook to a wide screen monitor and the aspect ratio is changed for some reason.
