[Tex/LaTex] Displaying images in draft mode for books

In graphics/graphicx, how to show actual pictures despite draft mode

(2 answers)

Closed 8 years ago.

I am writing my thesis in draft mode.

\documentclass[dissertation,draft]{univthesis}

The univthesis is a dissertation template like a book. However, when I include figures, I only see the figure name and box enclosing it. When draft mode is removed, I get what I want. So, I was wondering if there is a way to display images even in draft mode. I have both .eps and .pdf files in the current directory.

Answer 1

Try using the following setup:

\RequirePackage{graphicx}
\documentclass[dissertation,draft]{univthesis}

This loads graphicx before the draft option is set. Alternatively (preferred), don't load graphicx but reset the package option using

\setkeys{Gin}{draft=false}

Gin contains the family of keys associated with graphics/graphicx.
