Graphics – Creating Full Screen Figures with Captions

Question

I am trying to get an image to fill/cover whole page. However, still I want a caption with the standard figure number for reference. Where the caption appear is not that important.. Just somewhere on the image.

Normally I insert images like below. How can I get the image to cover the header og footer? And 100% of the width.

(I know a printer will not be able to print to the edges, that's OK)

\begin{figure}[H]
    \centering
    \includegraphics[width=1.00\textwidth]{billeder/Skitseprojektering/Bindinger/kort/Jordartskort.png}
    \caption{Jordarter i projektområdet \parencite{skaermkort_graa,vejmidte_vejnavne,jordart_GEUS_GIS}.}
    \label{fig:jordbundsanalyse}
\end{figure}

Answer 1

An incgraph solution:

\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{caption}
\usepackage{incgraph}

\begin{document}
\Huge
Normal page before the image page. Ref to Figure~\ref{img:image page} on page~\pageref{img:image page}

% `inctext` environment will typeset its contents in a separate page
\begin{inctext}[paper=current,label={img:image page},bookmark={A huge ABC}]
  \begin{minipage}{\paperwidth}
    \includegraphics[width=\paperwidth]{example-image}
    \captionof{figure}{Title}
  \end{minipage}
\end{inctext}

Another normal page after the image page
\end{document}

adjustbox has more advanced scaling options in case you want to set the scaling more automatic.

Update:

To push the image to top, use

  \begin{minipage}[t][\paperheight]{\paperwidth}
    [...]
    \vfill
  \end{minipage}
