I want to insert a figure into a column, which means a figure uses 0.5*paper width.And the paper are written in two columns. At the same time, I need to use \bicaption{}{},which is in bicaption package, to create two captions for one figure.  \usepackage{caption} \usepackage{multicol} \usepackage{bicaption} \begin{document} xxxx...... \begin{multicols}{2} \begin{figure} \includegraphics{figure A} \end{figure} \end{multicols} \end{document}  The problem is,in this case, the figure can not display in a pdf document.

I know there is a command like   \begin{figure}[p] \end{figure}   But when I use it in a two-column model, the $[p]$ cannot work. So I am wondering if there is any solution to preserve the figure in current page when I use $\begin{figuire*}$.

I am trying to include a figure into LaTeX from a paper originally created using MS Word. I have already converted all the text/equations into LaTeX but I can't figure out how to get the figures over without re-drawing them using LaTeX code (which I do not want to do). The image is a plain box (like a tabular) one row by 7 columns with numbers inside each cell. Then I inserted arrows of varying length above and below the box (several short ones and one much longer).    I am trying to use the  package with the \includegraphics command.   I copied the figure (box and arrows) from my original article into a blank Word doc. The figure only takes up the first 4 or 5 lines of the blank document. I then selected/highlighted the image and printed the selection using 'PDFCreator'. This allowed me to save the image as a .eps file. I then copied and pasted the eps file into the folder where all my .tex files are saved.  When I compile the document using pdftexify there is a blank space where the image should be. In the console I get the following message when I compile the document:  [27] &lt;Fig3-eps-converted-to.pdf, id =105, 391.4625pt x 74.2774pt&gt; &lt;use Fig3-eps-converted-to.pdf&gt; Overfull \hbox 1.46153pt too wide) in paragraph at lines 511--516 []   My code looks like this:  \documentclass[12pt]{article}  \usepackage{graphicx} \usepackage{epstopdf} \begin{document}  %Text  \includegraphics{fig3.eps}  %text  \end{document}   I have read the sections on graphics in 'LaTeX: A Document Preparation System' and 'The Not So Short Introduction to LaTeX2e' but I still can't figure this out. Should I maybe use a PNG image since it is a pretty basic figure? Any advice on how to properly transfer images from a word doc to .eps format and/or how to get those .eps files into LaTeX properly would be a huge help.

I would like to place the figures as illustrated in the figure below.  The below code can place three figures side by side, but the third one on the right hand side becomes 1c (instead of 2). Any suggestions? Thank you in advance.  \begin{figure*}[tp!]   \centering   \begin{minipage}{.315\linewidth}     \centering     \subcaptionbox{\footnotesize 1a. \label{fig:1a} }     {\includegraphics[width=\textwidth]{figures/1a.pdf}}   \end{minipage}\quad   \begin{minipage}{.315\linewidth}     \centering     \subcaptionbox{\footnotesize 1b. \label{fig:1b}}     {\includegraphics[width=\textwidth]{figures/1b.pdf}}   \end{minipage}\quad   \begin{minipage}{.315\linewidth}     \centering     \subcaptionbox{\footnotesize 2. \label{fig:2}}     {\includegraphics[width=\textwidth]{figures/2.pdf}}   \end{minipage}   \caption{\footnotesize Main caption here. }   \label{fig:main} \end{figure*}

I'm using the multicol package for my columns. So far, I have \setlength\columnsep{10pt} in the preamble to set the default column separation. But for one particular page, I'd like to set the columnsep to 30pt.  I wasn't able to get it to work by inserting a new \setlength at the start of the page.  Here's an example:  \documentclass{article} \usepackage{blindtext} \usepackage{multicol} \setlength\columnsep{10pt} % This is the default columnsep for all pages \begin{document}  \begin{multicols*}{2} \blindtext  \newpage \setlength\columnsep{30pt} % I want the columnsep to be wider only on this page. Right now, nothing happens. The default 10pt is still being used. \blindtext \columnbreak \blindtext  \newpage \blindtext  \end{multicols*} \end{document}   Any help would be appreciated.

I am using the package multicol to typeset a one-column (spanning the entire text width) heading and a two-column main text block. In order to do so, I begin the multicols environment along with the start of the text block. The one-column heading spans a small fraction of the text height in the front page and I need to set a footnote there, before starting the two-column environment. I'd like to have that footnote typeset under the first column in the two-column running text. How could I possibly do this?   Moreover, I'd like to have the footnotes typeset in a single column under one of the text columns -- I don't even mind having them as two-column footnotes, but what I do not want is a footnotes layout spanning the entire text width. I have tried with the command \twocolumnfootnotes from the class memoir, with the packages ledmac, dblfnote, and even with ftnright (the latter complains about its being used in a single-column document, due to that one-column heading). None has proved useful in this setting. As a less than MWE, just to convey a more concrete depiction of my scenario, let us consider:  \documentclass{memoir}  \usepackage{multicol}  \begin{document}  A single-column heading\footnote{Here I have my footnote.}  \begin{multicols}{2} Here I am in the two-column environment, and I want my footnotes being set in accordance with the document's ``columnwidth''.\footnote{A footnote in the two-column environment.} \end{multicols}   \end{document}

I am searching means to create a multicol document in which each column has a background color like illustrated below. The colored areas (red rectangles) should be filled with the background color. Since the document has many columns (4 in the example, but 10 in reality) splitting the text in minipages or similar is not my favored option.

How to insert text between two figures or images in LaTeX? I have this code  \begin{figure}[htbp]   \centering     \includegraphics[width=0.5\textwidth]{1.jpg}     \caption{Resala's Donation Page.} \end{figure}  and for the volunteering activities, they do record all their activities...  \begin{figure}[htbp]   \centering     \includegraphics[width=1\textwidth]{2.jpg}     \caption{Resala's Project Page.} \end{figure}   but what happens is the text is placed before the first image and all images are placed at the end of the page.

I want to use multicols in my document and also having a small box on each page (upper left) to be drawn automatically. I already tried \AtBeginPage hooks but the box didn't print at proper position... I've defined \header for what I want as a box:    MWE:  \documentclass[10pt,landscape,a4paper]{article} \usepackage[utf8]{inputenc} \usepackage[ngerman]{babel} \usepackage[utopia,sfscaled]{mathdesign} %\usepackage[lf,minionint]{MinionPro} %\renewcommand{\sfdefault}{phv} %\usepackage[lf]{MyriadPro} \usepackage{multicol} \usepackage[top=0mm,bottom=0mm,left=0mm,right=0mm]{geometry} %\usepackage{hyperref} \usepackage{lipsum} \usepackage[framemethod=tikz]{mdframed} %\usepackage{fancyhdr} ---&gt; ??? \usepackage{microtype}  \renewcommand{\baselinestretch}{.8} \pagestyle{empty}  \global\mdfdefinestyle{header}{% linecolor=gray,linewidth=1pt,% leftmargin=0mm,rightmargin=0mm,skipbelow=0mm,skipabove=0mm, }  \newcommand{\header}{ \begin{mdframed}[style=header] \footnotesize Some Text Inside\\ Page~\thepage~of~6 \end{mdframed} }  \makeatletter \renewcommand{\section}{\@startsection{section}{1}{0mm}%                                 {.2ex}%                                 {.2ex}%x                                 {\sffamily\bfseries}} \makeatother \setlength{\parindent}{0pt}  \begin{document} \footnotesize \begin{multicols*}{5} \header \lipsum\lipsum\lipsum\lipsum \end{multicols*} \end{document}   Is there a way I could achieve this result having the box automatically at upperleft column for each page and no text will be drawn above the box?

I don't know if this has been asked before. But so far nothing has come up with my search.  In some books, the figures are placed at the outer side of the page like in the picture below.    Is this achievable in TeX/LaTeX? That is how does one set up the page so that all text will appear in a 'text column' and the figures appear in a 'figures column' in every page?

I want to make a two column document such as in the first column there is text and in the second column pictures with examples for the text. How can i do that?

I am using multicol to make a two-column document using the book document class. I have a long tabular that I want to break where the page breaks and then continue in the next column.  I could split it into two tables, but I want their width and such to be the same. I've tried with longtable but can't get it to work.  I basically want the table to split and arrange itself into two columns just like normal text does.  Edit: Sorry for the lack of information. With just 1 column it works fine with longtable, but when I use multicols it breaks down and just continues outside the page. I also get an error while compiling.     Package longtable Error: longtable not in 1-column mode.   This is a simplification of my code:  \documentclass[11pt,a4paper]{article}  \usepackage{multicol} \usepackage{longtable}  \begin{document}  \begin{multicols}{2}  \begin{longtable}{ccc} Header of first column &amp; Header of second column \\ \endhead Table cell 1, 1 &amp; Table cell 1, 2 \\ Table cell 2, 1 &amp; Table cell 2, 2 \\ Table cell 1, 1 &amp; Table cell 1, 2 \\ ... ... \end{longtable}  \end{multicols}  \end{document}     I hope this is enough information. Any thoughts?

I create a document in two-column-layout with LaTeX (and Koma-Script, if that is relevant). The two-column-layout is defined in documentclass. The last page of an chapter fills the left column first - the result is that both column are of different length. How can I balance that?  EDIT: flushend like mentioned in the answer of TH. doesn't work for me. Maybe it is conflicting with some other package I use?  EDIT 2: OK, after I tested with lipsum like suggested from Joseph Wright I saw it balanced. I tried a little bit and could find out, that flushend only balances the columns in the last chapter, not in all of them. Knowing that, I could see, that it is true for my document too, the last chapter has balanced columns. How can I achieve it for all of them? Here my short example:  \documentclass[a4paper, 10pt, twocolumn, DIV=18]{scrbook}      \usepackage{flushend}     \usepackage{lipsum}      \begin{document}      \chapter{test}          \lipsum         \lipsum      \chapter{second}          \lipsum         \lipsum      \chapter{third}          \lipsum         \lipsum  \end{document}

Looking to put a table and a figure side by side so that the table and figure have their own captions. A crude sketch    ------------              -----------------     TABLE    | a |  b |                     FIGURE   | c |  d |  ------------              Table 2: Caption           -----------------                            Figure 7: Caption   The closest I've gotten is:  \begin{table}% \centering \parbox{0.4\textwidth}{ \begin{footnotesize} \begin{tabular}{| l | r |} \hline some &amp; table\\ \end{tabular} \end{footnotesize} \caption{Table} \label{tab:table} } \qquad \begin{minipage}[c]{0.53\textwidth}% \centering     \includegraphics[width=1\textwidth]{awesome} \caption{Figure} \label{fig:figure} \end{minipage} \end{table}   But that gives two Table X: Caption captions. I didn't find anything in subfig.  Help?

I am unable to get table captions to show up when using the  from 2008 (the latest version includes printer marks that I do not want).  The documentation says "Figure and table captions should be entered at the end of the document..." but as captions are shown for figures, I'd like them to be shown for tables too.  I was hoping their recommendation wasn't implemented as a limit for authors but it seems it is, or am I missing something? If not, is there a workaround I can employ?  \documentclass{pnastwo}  \usepackage{graphicx} \usepackage{pnastwoF} \usepackage{amssymb,amsfonts,amsmath}  \begin{document}  \begin{article}  \begin{table}[h]     \begin{tabular}{cc}         1 & 2 \\         3 & 4     \end{tabular}     \caption{A caption that does not appear.} \end{table}  \begin{figure}     \caption{A caption that does appear.} \end{figure}  \end{article}  \end{document}

If I just try to set the figure's size to 0.9\textwidth my figure will just end up on the right column, sized to be two-columns wide.  Has anyone done this before?

I have the following tikzpictures, and I would like to present them in two columns.
