    problem with latex and eps in Kile

    Hi everybody,

    latex has 0 errors, 0 warnings and still it doesn't display my eps or jpg in the dvi or the pdf file.
    After compiling latex it says nothing or pdflatex is says exit with error status 70.

    I have already tried usepackage{graphics, graphicx, psfigure, pstopdf, ifpdf etc}


    Latex compiles all right, but the viewer doesn't make a file with pictures.

    I'm using Kile in Ubuntu-->Hardy Heron-->8.04-->gnome environment

    here's my tex code
    \documentclass[a4paper,11pt,draft]{article}

    \usepackage{amsmath}
    \usepackage[UKenglish]{babel}
    \usepackage{graphics}
    \usepackage[dvips, pdftex]{graphicx}
    \usepackage{pspicture}
    %\usepackage{ifpdf}
    %\ifpdf
    %\usepackage[pdftex]{hyperref}
    %\else
    %\usepackage[dvipdfm]{hyperref}
    %\fi


    \author{me}
    \title{Test}
    \date{2008-10-27}


    \begin{document}
    \maketitle

    bgkhbngkghkjnhjkhnklghnhkglnghkn

    \noindent jfmgflgjgfjlfgjglk


    \begin{figure}
    \centering
    \includegraphics{test}
    \caption{test}
    \label{fig:test}
    \end{figure}


    \end{document}

    Re: problem with latex and eps in Kile

    First, try running LaTeX multiple times over the document (I don't know why this works, but 3 times is usually enough).

    If that doesn't work, I'd suggest changing the line
    Code:
    \includegraphics{test}
    to
    Code:
    \includegraphics{test.eps}
    and running LaTeX at least 3 times over the resulting document.

    If *that* doesn't work, try converting your figures to pdf with ps2pdf.

    Hi,

    just remove the option draft in this line:

    because the draft option suppresses the inclusion of graphics, just boxes with the filename will be displayed.

    Regarding these lines:

    just
    Code:
    \usepackage{graphicx}
    is enough. graphics will be loaded by graphicx. Don't set driver options like dvips and pdftex if it's not really necessary, it should be automatically detected.
    You could find some useful documents concerning the import of graphics with LaTeX here.

    It would be very useful to those of us who write LaTeX documentation if you could say where you got the idea for mixing \usepackage{graphics,graphicx} so that we can make it clearer that \usepackage{graphicx} is usually all you need.

    Note that it is typically advisable to start a new thread here if the older thread is .... very old.

    First, why did you comment out "\usepackage{graphicx}"?

    Second, try to run "pdflatex <yourpaper>.tex" from the terminal and see if it hangs somewhere. Kile sometimes suppresses certain errors.

    Third, "\input{psfig.sty}" is a very weird line - where did you got that from? Typically, you would rather want "\usepackage{psfig}", and this command has to be put *before* "\begin{document}".

    Finally, if these things do not work, build a *minimal, complete LaTeX code example* that shows your problem, and post it here together with the LaTeX output you received. There problem with your post here is that id doesn't actually show the lines of the document in which some figure is added.
