\includegraphics
command (provided by the graphicx package) inside figure
environment. The arguments to figure specify where the space will be
made, preferentially
h | here |
t | top of page |
b | bottom of page |
p | on a page with no text |
\begin{figure}[htbp] \vspace{1cm} \caption{1 cm of space} \end{figure}
If you have a label defined in the caption,
LATEX may give an error message.
\label
is a fragile command (see the
LATEX book for details) so you'll need
to do something like
... \caption{1 cm of space\protect\label{EMPTY}}or simply put the
\label
command after the caption. Note that
if you put the \label
before the caption, the resulting
reference will be the section number and not the figure number. See the LATEX Maths and
Graphics document for more details.
