SUMMARY

The discussion addresses a common issue in LaTeX where the error "Package pdftex.def Error: File 'BeggarDigraph.jpg' not found" occurs when attempting to include a JPG image using the \includegraphics command. The user is utilizing MikTeX 2.9 and TeXnic Center on Windows, and has confirmed that the image file is located in the same directory as the .tex file.

I've looked over the other threads, and I can't seem to find a fix for my problem. I've save my jpg into the same folder as the .tex file. I've been using \usepackage{graphicx}. I just can't seem to find a solution. I'm using MikTex 2.9 and TeXnic Center on Windows. My code for the picture is:

\includegraphics{BeggarDigraph.jpg} %file name = BeggarDigraph.jpg

The error/warning is "Package pdftex.def Error: File 'BeggarDigraph.jpg' not found."
I don't really know what this means. I'm relatively new to LateX.

I'll be glad to clarify anything, and if anyone can help me out here, I would greatly appreciate it.
