Graphics, Figures & Tables ⇒ Inclusion of PNG Image File fails

[thesiswriter21]

Hello,

I've extracted only the relevant lines of the problem. First I will paste these lines and discuss after.

Code: Select all

\documentclass[12pt,dvips]{report}
\usepackage[english]{babel}
\usepackage[pdftex]{graphicx}

\begin{document}
  \begin{figure}[!ht]
    \centering
    \includegraphics{Images/Morph_Proc/strel.png}
    \caption{Original matrix and result of dilation}
  \end{figure}
\end{document}

Ok. So when I use \usepackage[pdftex]{graphicx} the figures are inserted properly. However, when I use this the page numbers disappear. When I use just \usepackage{graphicx} the page numbers are present, but there is a blank spot where the image should be. Also if I don't insert natwidth/natheight, when using just this, then it says it can't find the bounding box.

Any ideas?

Thanks.

Hi,

welcome to the board!

Those two lines cause a conflict:

Code: Select all

\documentclass[12pt,dvips]{report}
\usepackage[pdftex]{graphicx}

• dvips is for LaTeX in dvi mode, i.e. compiling tex -> dvi -> ps -> pdf
• pdftex is for pdfLaTeX, i.e. directly compiling tex -> pdf

Decide, which you would like to use. Even better: don't specify such driver options, the packages will automatically detect which engine you are using.
