How to reduce spaces between figure and its caption?

Post by singhofmpl »

I'm writing my PhD thesis in LaTex. I'm facing a major problem of a lot of spaces between figures and its caption. Please let me know how to reduce spaces between figures and its caption.

You need to provide some more information about your problem, eg the class you are using and what kind of figures. See this post:

How much space is too much? Is there too much space if you compile the code below?

Code: Select all

\documentclass[a4paper]{article}
\usepackage{graphicx}

\begin{document}

\begin{figure}
\rule{\textwidth}{5pt}
\caption[]{Caption below the figure}
\end{figure}

\end{document}
