The main issue in the last post was only a namespace problem. This is my current version:


\documentclass[11pt]{scrartcl}

\usepackage[english]{babel}
\usepackage{lipsum}
\usepackage{multicol}
\usepackage{titlesec}

\newlength\sectionBLS
\usekomafont{section}
\setlength{\sectionBLS}{\baselineskip ...

I have experimented a little with that package, but I have trouble calculating the right heights. Assuming that the \section title is \Large, I wanted to leave one normal \baselineskip of room below the heading and three such \baselineskips minus the \baselineskip of the \Large line above.

It is very possible that if you had all information about the structure of the data my report is based on, you could suggest a much more efficacious way of organizing it, but that information seems much and unwieldy to me right now, which is to say that I can’t decide which part I could safely leave ...

Unless there is some other option, that is what I’ll resort to. The problem is that, unlike this minimal example, my actual document contains dozens of \includegraphics calls that do a bunch of stuff with the picture—the same bunch of stuff for every picture. I don’t want to have to duplicate all ...

Hecko everyone,

I have the following problem:


\documentclass[11pt]{scrartcl}

\usepackage{graphicx}

\begin{document}

\includegraphics{\ifnum23=23 chart\_research\_de.png\fi}

\end{document}


The picture exists, but pdflatex outputs following error (to the logfile):
