General ⇒ Help! Diagrams in latex

[thesixth]

Hi people
I am new to Latex and trying to figure out the best way to get diagrams into my latex work. I have converted a file to a .pdf and used

Code: Select all

\includegraphics{C:/filename.pdf}

which seemd to work except that the graphic was on the bottom of the next page. I can't find from search engines any way to specify where the graphic goes or understand why this happened...
Help gratefully received!

Hi,

do you use \includegraphics and nothing else? Or are you using the figure environment? Because if you use the figure environment the graphic may be placed somewhere else depending on the parameters to the environment.
