Error

Post by Alexovodenko »

When I try to load a postscript file into Latex, I receive the following error message:

! LaTeX Error: File 'Economic Growth and Incumbent Vote Share' not found.

The file has extension ps. and is in the folder containing the Tex file I am working on. I use the following package entry:

\usepackage[dvips]{graphicx}

and I use the following command to enter the image:

\begin{figure}
\includegraphics[scale=0.7]{Economic Growth and Incumbent Vote Share}
\end{figure}

I have seen this error message in the past, but have gotten around it. I can't see the problem this time because I have checked the usual supects: file location, incorrect package information, incorrect command entry, etc.

What should I do?

Thanks.

Alex

Avoid blank spaces in the name and the path of the file. You may shorten the file name. Depending on your operating system, the string for the file name may be case sensitive.
