    LaTeX Latex Graphics Acts Like Nothing Happened, Baffles Student.

    Thanks! It seems like it's because I'm using the multi-column environment, so that means I can't use floats. I'm pretty sure it's working if I just use the \includegraphics command, but is there any way to still include captions? I don't think my prof. would be okay with it if I left those out :)

    So I'm discovering. Is there a quick way to convert them? Will changing the file type and replacing \includegraphics{SeminalEmulsion.jpg} with \psfig{file=FileName.eps} solve the problem?

    Hi everyone, I'm trying to put graphics into a lab report in LaTeX, and the images simply won't show up. I've tried doing it several ways, including this: \begin{figure}[h] \begin{center} \includegraphics{SeminalEmulsion.jpg} \caption{default} \label{default} \end{center} \end{figure}...
