Graphics, Figures & Tables ⇒ graphicx | Included Image and following Text not displayed

[nich]

I'm still a bit of a LaTeX noob, and this one has got me stumped. My code is:

Code: Select all

\documentclass[11pt]{article}
\usepackage{amsmath}
\usepackage{graphicx}
\begin{document}

paragraph one

\includegraphics{ConfidenceChart.png}

paragraph two

\end{document}

Paragraph one appears in the output pdf, but the graphic 'ConfidenceChart.png' does not appear, and neither does anything I write below it!

This seems like it should be such a simple operation...

Any help would be greatly appreciated

Did you get warnings or errors? Perhaps post the .log file here, as attachment. You could also post the png image, if you like.

It says there were 0 errors, 0 warnings 0 bad boxes and 0 page(s)... even though the pdf is three pages long.

I've uploaded the log file which may have some clues. Haven't uploaded the png - its just a graph I made in excel

[Stefan Kottwitz]

0 pages mean there wasn't any output produced. Perhaps the 3 page pdf was from a previous compilation.

However, I see that the log file is incomplete, which points to a known issue with MiKTeX. Have a look at No output after recovering from system rebuild, there's a solution.

Excellent,

I didn't even realize the whole document wasn't changing each time I compiled - thought it was just that I couldn't see text that I added after the insert graphic line.

So, for future reference, the solution was to switch on-the-fly package downloading to yes or no but not 'ask me first'. I accessed Miktex options through:
C:\Program Files (x86)\MiKTeX 2.9\miktex\bin\mo_admin.exe

Thanks a lot Stefan
