I'm submitting to a journal that requests tables and figures to be formatted in the following way:
- The term FIGURE 1 or TABLE 1 (all caps, ideally) centered above the figure.
- The table/figure title below the figure, without the table/figure number.
I am able to get requirement (2) to work by using the caption package and \caption*{Table Title}
inside the tabular but below the table. But then there's no FIGURE #/TABLE # above the figure/table. I can't find anything that would allow me to have the FIGURE #/TABLE # all-caps and centered.
How can I format my figures and tables to these rather silly specifications? My apologies if I'm missing something super obvious, I have been looking for a while.
For example, using standard code
\documentclass[12pt]{article}
\usepackage{graphicx}
\usepackage{caption}
\begin{document}
\begin{figure}
\centering
\caption{Figure Title}
\includegraphics[width=.80\textwidth]{example.png}
\end{figure}
\end{document}
Gets me
Figure 1. Figure Title
[Image]
and
\documentclass[12pt]{article}
\usepackage{graphicx}
\usepackage{caption}
\begin{document}
\begin{figure}
\centering
\includegraphics[width=.80\textwidth]{example.png}
\caption*{Figure Title}
\end{figure}
\end{document}
Gets me
[Image]
Figure Title
but I want:
FIGURE 1
[Image]
Figure Title

What's wrong with two captions in your figure environment? (Not a rhetorical question — if that's the wrong thing to do, I'd like to know.)
EDITED to uppercase the caption label.
