graphicshorizontal alignment
I am using the Fancy CV tempate and I would like to put an image on the top right corner.
I managed to do that using :
\begin{picture}(50,50)
\put(335,10){\hbox{\includegraphics[scale=1]{img/photoCircle}}}
\end{picture}
Which produces :
But this moves the rest of the page.
It should be like this :
So I was wondering, is there any way to force images and text to be on different layers and force the image to be "floating" (not moving the text)
The wrapfig package is perhaps the best package to provide such functionality. The following is an example of how to use such package
\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{graphicx,wrapfig,lipsum}
%------------------------------------------
\begin{document}
This is where the table goes with text wrapping around it. You may
embed tabular environment inside wraptable environment and customize as you like.
%------------------------------------------
\begin{wrapfigure}{r}{5.5cm}
\caption{A wrapped figure going nicely inside the text.}\label{wrap-fig:1}
\includegraphics[width=5.5cm]{sample}
\end{wrapfigure}
%------------------------------------------
{\lipsum[2-3]
\par
Figure~\ref{wrap-fig:1} is a wrapped figure.
%------------------------------------------
\end{document}
Which produces the following output:
Since \includegraphics places images upon the text baseline, I here use \raisebox to shift the figures down (1/2 of their height - 1/2 the height of a textline). Then, by placing symmetric \hspaces around the word "and", I can achieve a symmetric layout. I use % at the end of the lines to prevent stray spaces from getting introduced.
\documentclass{article}
\usepackage[demo]{graphicx}
\begin{document}
Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text
Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text
Text Text
\begin{center}
\raisebox{\dimexpr-.5\height+.5\ht\strutbox}%
{\includegraphics[width=1in,height=1in]{black_square}}%
\hspace{.5in}%
and%
\hspace{.5in}%
\raisebox{\dimexpr-.5\height+.5\ht\strutbox}%
{\includegraphics[width=1in,height=1in]{black_square}}
\par\end{center}
Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text
Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text
Text Text
\end{document}
If you wanted the figures to be exactly spaced between the margin and the middle text, this would suffice, replacing the center environment with the appropriate \hfils, making sure to not indent the "paragraph" on which the figures appear.
\documentclass{article}
\usepackage[demo]{graphicx}
\begin{document}
Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text
Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text
Text Text
\medskip
\noindent
\hfil%
\raisebox{\dimexpr-.5\height+.5\ht\strutbox}%
{\includegraphics[width=1in,height=1in]{black_square}}%
\hfil%
and%
\hfil%
\raisebox{\dimexpr-.5\height+.5\ht\strutbox}%
{\includegraphics[width=1in,height=1in]{black_square}}%
\hfil%
\par\medskip
Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text

The
tikzpagenodespackage is specifically designed for this purpose. You can put just about anything you want in the node, albeit that for more complicated structures it can take a little digging to find out how.
