I am trying to use this IEEE  to write a report. I don't see any package named \usepackage{multicol} which is used for multi-column. So I can not change it from two column to single column. Problem is, I have a big table which need whole page without two column. That is, my table should be in single column with whole page. You can see the example image. Sorry for bad image. Also, I have to use this template to write my report.

I'm trying to get images in my document in two different ways:   On top of the entire page, centered On top of a single column   I tried it with both twocols and multicols. I ruled out twocols because it forces a new page every time you turn it on, because I need the abstract to be wide and the rest of the cover page to be two columns.  Here are some examples of both points (screenshot from a downloaded PDF):   I want to achieve both, but somehow I can only solve the first point with:  \end{multicols}  \begin{figure}   \centering     \includegraphics[width=0.5\textwidth]{figure}   \caption{Dataflow pipeline of the edge detector}   \label{fig:workflowedge} \end{figure}  \begin{multicols}{2}   Is it awkward to turn off multicols, then turn it back on again?  For my second point, I've tried everything, but almost always, the image doesn't show up at all! The only way I can get it to show at all is by specifying the H placement specifier, but that places the image inside the text where I defined it, not on top of the column.  This is my best try, but it hides the image and breaks all references to ??:  \begin{figure}[t!]   \centering     \includegraphics[width=0.25\textwidth]{figure}   \caption{Dataflow pipeline of the edge detector}   \label{fig:workflowedge} \end{figure}   and I'm getting the warning:  Package multicol Warning: Floats and marginpars not allowed inside `multicols' environment!.   How can I make a figure a non-float?  I also tried the figure* environment, but that just creates an image centered on top of the page, like my first point.

I received a table template, which I'm intended to generate dynamically with data using Java. But when the table becomes to large, the compilation with LaTeX fails. The specific about this template is, that it stretches the table width into the maximal page width and has same column widths for all data columns (except the first column).  Here is a minimal version of the full template, that still works fine:  \documentclass[final,authoryear,3p,twocolumn]{elsarticle}  \usepackage{amssymb,amsmath} \usepackage{calc} \usepackage{array} \newcolumntype{L}[1]{&gt;{\raggedright\arraybackslash}p{#1}} \newcolumntype{R}[1]{&gt;{\raggedleft\arraybackslash}p{#1}} \usepackage{eurosym} \usepackage{microtype} \usepackage{needspace} \usepackage{fp}  \usepackage{graphicx} \DeclareGraphicsExtensions{.pdf} \input{pgfexternal}  \newcommand\tabt{\rule{0pt}{2.6ex}} \newcommand\tabb{\rule[-1.2ex]{0pt}{0pt}}  \begin{document}  \begin{table*}[t]     \footnotesize     \begin{tabular*}{\linewidth}{@{}L{2em}@{}*9{R{(\linewidth-2em)/9}@{}}}\hline\tabt $i$ &amp; $1$ &amp; $2$ &amp; $3$ &amp; $4$ &amp; $5$ &amp; $6$ &amp; $7$ &amp; $8$ &amp; $9$\tabb\tabularnewline\hline\tabt $1$ &amp;  &amp; $48.87$ &amp; $0.01$ &amp; $0.05$ &amp; $1.23$ &amp; $0.00$ &amp; $0.20$ &amp; $5.67$ &amp; $2.35$\tabularnewline     \end{tabular*} \end{table*}  \end{document}   But when extending this example by another column, so that the table would look like the following example, it fails:  \begin{table*}[t]     \footnotesize     \begin{tabular*}{\linewidth}{@{}L{2em}@{}*10{R{(\linewidth-2em)/10}@{}}}\hline\tabt $i$ &amp; $1$ &amp; $2$ &amp; $3$ &amp; $4$ &amp; $5$ &amp; $6$ &amp; $7$ &amp; $8$ &amp; $9$ &amp; a\tabb\tabularnewline\hline\tabt $1$ &amp;  &amp; $48.87$ &amp; $0.01$ &amp; $0.05$ &amp; $1.23$ &amp; $0.00$ &amp; $0.20$ &amp; $5.67$ &amp; $2.35$ &amp; b\tabularnewline     \end{tabular*} \end{table*}   This fails, no matter how many columns I add. So far, it seems for me to be a problem with the division by 10. May it be, that LaTeX isn't able to handle that properly by default? How can I solve this problem and make even larger tables work using this template. Or is that to any other problem I don't see yet? Thanks for any help!

If I've 12 - 14 columns in a table to show on a page but there's not enough space to show all columns (let's say, there's only enough space to show 7 columns of the table), what is the solution for this?  I can make the page scroll horizontally but it's ugly and the last resort. Shrinking the font size of the table data only has rooms for 1  - 2 more columns at best.

Trying to figure out a way to have column two auto-update to show a timestamp of the last update. I realize the doc shows a timestamp of the last modification, but we have a lot of clients accessing and adjusting the doc at the same time. So this request was put in. I'll admit I have not done coding, so this is beyond me.  Myanda had posted something that seemed along the right path, but we are not sure how to implement it for our needs:

Don't look at me like that, I actually like the way to call both login and registration forms together a logistration form, well it's convenient. I've designed a logistration form, but the problem is that I want to know which approach do you think you're more comfortable with, a single column or two column approach? By the way I've read  I'd actually like to know your own opinion, which one is better?  Two column approach?     And one column approach:

I'm new to LaTex, so please bear with me if this is a newbie question. I am using a template where \listoftables is defined as follows:  \def\listoftables{\@restonecolfalse\if@twocolumn\@restonecoltrue\onecolumn   \fi\chapter*{List of Tables\@mkboth    {LIST OF TABLES}{LIST OF TABLES}}    \addcontentsline{toc}{chapter}{List of Tables}\@starttoc{lot}\if@restonecol   \twocolumn\fi}   When I add \listoftables to my document, I get something like this:    What I'd like to add is something like this:    How do I add the header row at the top for each column in the list of tables? Thank you in advanced for your answers and suggestions!

EDIT Like some comments below are remarking the table environment doesn't allow tables over more than one page. However the solution works fine  I need to make a table over more than one page. The standard approach seems to be to use the ltablex environment. However, it doesn't work; also I assume that the table environment may also be required for the thesis template I work on (e.g. suppose for the capture).   \documentclass[11pt]{article} \usepackage{booktabs} \usepackage{tabularx} \usepackage{ltablex}  \begin{document}  \begin{table} \caption{Example of an table} \label{tab:daypack}      \begin{tabularx}{\linewidth}{@{}cX@{}}   \toprule \textbf{Column 1} &amp; \textbf{Column 2} \\[6pt] \midrule \endhead $R$ &amp; 1This is an example sentence \\[6pt] $R$ &amp; 2As well as the line before \\[6pt] $A$ &amp; 3Also this is an example \\[6pt] $R$ &amp; 4This is an example sentence \\[6pt] $R$ &amp; 5As well as the line before \\[6pt] $A$ &amp; 6Also this is an example \\[6pt] $R$ &amp; 7This is an example sentence \\[6pt] $R$ &amp; 8As well as the line before \\[6pt] $A$ &amp; 9Also this is an example \\[6pt] $R$ &amp; 10This is an example sentence \\[6pt] $R$ &amp; 11As well as the line before \\[6pt] $A$ &amp; 12Also this is an example \\[6pt] $R$ &amp; 13This is an example sentence \\[6pt] $R$ &amp; 14As well as the line before \\[6pt] $A$ &amp; 15Also this is an example \\[6pt] $R$ &amp; 16This is an example sentence \\[6pt] $R$ &amp; 17As well as the line before \\[6pt] $A$ &amp; 18Also this is an example \\[6pt] $R$ &amp; 19This is an example sentence \\[6pt] $R$ &amp; 20As well as the line before \\[6pt] $A$ &amp; 21Also this is an example \\[6pt] $R$ &amp; 22This is an example sentence \\[6pt] $R$ &amp; 23As well as the line before \\[6pt] $A$ &amp; 24Also this is an example \\[6pt] $R$ &amp; 25This is an example sentence \\[6pt] $R$ &amp; 26As well as the line before \\[6pt] $A$ &amp; 27Also this is an example \\[6pt] $R$ &amp; 28This is an example sentence \\[6pt] $R$ &amp; 29As well as the line before \\[6pt] $A$ &amp; 30Also this is an example \\[6pt] $R$ &amp; 31This is an example sentence \\[6pt] $R$ &amp; 32As well as the line before \\[6pt] $A$ &amp; 33Also this is an example \\[6pt] $R$ &amp; 34This is an example sentence \\[6pt] $R$ &amp; 35As well as the line before \\[6pt] $A$ &amp; 36Also this is an example \\[6pt] $R$ &amp; 37This is an example sentence \\[6pt] \bottomrule \end{tabularx}    \end{table}      \end{document}

A continuation of .  I'm fighting a page-limit in a single-column layout and I need to put a Figure and a Table side-by-side and provide them with independent captions. However, the style guide for the publishers (LNCS) wants Figure captions below and Table captions above (probably something to do with ).   =======================================================  If I adapt @lockstep's floatrow example from  accordingly to have a Table caption above ...  \documentclass{article}  \usepackage{floatrow} % Table float box with bottom caption, box width adjusted to content  %% ********************************** %% just adding \captop to original example %% ********************************** \newfloatcommand{capbtabbox}{table}[\captop][\FBwidth]  \usepackage{blindtext}   \begin{document}  \blindtext  \begin{figure} \begin{floatrow} \ffigbox{%   \rule{3cm}{3cm}% }{%   \caption{A figure}% } \capbtabbox{%   \begin{tabular}{cc} \hline   Author &amp; Title \\ \hline   Knuth &amp; The \TeX book \\   Lamport &amp; \LaTeX \\ \hline   Knuth &amp; The \TeX book \\   Lamport &amp; \LaTeX \\ \hline   Knuth &amp; The \TeX book \\   Lamport &amp; \LaTeX \\ \hline   \end{tabular} }{%   \caption{A table}% } \end{floatrow} \end{figure}  \end{document}   =======================================================  The problem becomes clear ...    =======================================================  The floatrow doesn't correctly line up the Table and Caption. I reluctantly tried to use vspace to solve the problem, but it didn't work out.  Any suggestions on how to get these two to align? I'm happy to accept any alignment that ensures that the Table and Figure fit within the same "box".  (A similar-ish question was , but specific for subfig and with a very localised problem it seems.)

I am writing a report in a 2 column page format. Now I want to insert a rather large picture that requires to use full width of the page and cut the columns horizontally. How can I achiveve this? Please see the images below for what I mean :

I'm trying to typeset a table that would have a header in the first row (I'm not looking for a different/better solution to adding a header, but for a fix to this solution. Thanks). I want to achieve this by having a multicolumn cell spanning all the columns of the first row. The problem is that if the text is too long, the column widths are uneven, with the last column accumulating excess width. I would expect all of the columns to be of approximately the same width (although I cannot find a decent source that would say they should), given the fact that all the text in the second row is of approximately the same width.  I find this behaviour quite puzzling and have no idea what the cause could be. I know I could perhaps remedy this by manually setting the column widths, but am curious as to how to fix this without doing that (I do not need or indeed want the columns to be of the same width, but roughly proportional to the length of their content), preferably but not necessarily by using the tabular environment only (some other conflict with the document class I am using).   What is it that I'm doing or assuming wrong? And why?  MWE:  \documentclass{article} \begin{document}  \begin{tabular}{ccccc} \multicolumn{5}{c}{This is a piece of text. The longer it is, the longer the last column.} \\  1 &amp; 2 &amp; 3 &amp; 4 &amp; 5 \\ \hline \end{tabular}  \end{document}   Resulting table. Notice how the last column of the second row accumulates excess width.

I have a two column table with a single multicolumn spanning both of them. The text on that multicolumn is rather long so I need to set its width so it wraps around. I can set the width with \multicolumn{2}{p{whatever}}{text} but what should I set &quot;whatever&quot; to? What is the actual width of a table? Is there a variable holding that value? I first thought to use \textwidth but that's not it. Building the document on draft mode shows that it's going out a tiny bit. The following table should show my problem. In draft mode will display a black box on its side. \begin{tabular}{l l}   \toprule   \multicolumn{2}{p{\textwidth}}{\lipsum[1]} \\   \bottomrule \end{tabular}  I do have more rows, I'm just keeping the example simple. I'm using the memoir document class. The actual text inside the multicolumn is using the seqsplit package. EDIT: I should have been more specific with the question. The only row that would make the table go over the limit is the one that I'm also trying to limit. And by limit I mean, so I don't get an overfull warning. So my question can be better rephrased as how to find the available space for a table so it is not overfull?

I publish a lot for science journals and some of them are very strict on the number of pages your manuscript will be, as usual the final version of the articles is double column but for review and stuff like that it is always ez to compile as single column.  My question is this, Is there a way to compile just one .tex file and get a Single column pdf and a double column one?  I read that this could be achieve by use of \write18 but I don't understand at all how  I guess must be something like this:  \documentclass[layout=onecolumn]{SomeJournalStyle} all the preamble  \write18{pdflatex "2Columnversion" Master.tex some script/modifier to change column layout at preamble }  \begin{document} . . . . . \end{document}
