Graphics, Figures & Tables ⇒ Force Portrait Format...

[skY-Head]

Hello guys,

I am trying to add some figures (eps) in my paper in PORTRAIT format, but:
I don't want that after compiling and viewing - a rotation of the page in landscape format... which always happens.

I am creating a contruction scetch in corel designer X4 and safe it in PORTRAIT format. Then export to *.eps.
When I view this *.eps file IT is also shown in PORTRAIT format, but as soon as I implement it in tex code (texniccenter) and press compile (LaTeX --> PS --> PDF) the page (not the figure) is rotated to landscape format, which I dont want!

Just in case you get me wrong: I absolutely want the figure to fill almost most of the page - that's why I created it exactly in DIN A4 size, BUT I want that the PDF shows it in Portrait format while one has to turn his head to read the figure properly. Its just because otherwise adobe Reader always annoys me with the zoom function and scroll bars which wont work properly anymore.


Minimal example:

\documentclass[12pt,a4paper]{scrreprt}
\usepackage{graphicx}

\begin{document}
\begin{figure} [htb]
\centering
\includegraphics[width=0.95\textwidth]{xyz}
\end{figure}
\end{document}

attached: xyz.eps
attached: xyz.jpg

Hi there,

Have you tried the rotation option in \includegraphics? If you enter the correct rotation angle, the figure is in portrait. Here is how:

Code: Select all

\includegraphics[angle=-90, width=0.95\textwidth]{xyz}

Just thinking about another thing. Why do you compile your code in DVI format, to convert it to PDF afterward. Aren't you better off to compile directly in PDF?

Hope this helps. Cheers
