[latex] Multiple figures under the same caption using ``subfigure''

If you want to put several small figures under the same caption, then you need to include the subfigure (along with  graphicx) package. The format is something like this:

The first, second, third and the fourth subfigures in  Figure
\ref{fig:subfigures} are labeled as
\ref{fig:first}, \ref{fig:second}, \ref{fig:third} and \ref{fig:fourth},
respectively.

It will create two rows of subfigures with two subfigures on each row (needless to say, you must have all those figures, viz. FirstFigure.eps through FourthFigure.eps, in the same directory as the LaTeX source file). The optional argument within the square brackets immediately following the subfigure statement is the caption of the subfigure (besides the main caption for all the subfigures at the end).

Various other options (e.g., cropping, resizing are rotating the figures) for includegraphics were explained awhile ago.
