How to place the figure at the bottom of page in latex?

Viewed 36802

I am having problem in placing the figure at the bottom of page in latex. When I specify the \begin{figure*}[b], all the figures in my documents goes at the end of document. What I need is just place one specific figure at the bottom of current page or next page.

Please guide me how can I do this?

In order to place a float at the bottom of a two-column document, you can use the dblfloatfix package. From the brief package description:

The pack­age solves two prob­lems: floats in a twocol­umn doc­u­ment come out in the right order and al­lowed float po­si­tions are now [tbp].

So, after \usepackage{dblfloatfix} you can use

\begin{figure*}[btp]
  % <your figure here>
\end{figure*}

Like will all floats (especially in a two-column environment), the float may not end up where it is placed. As such, you may have to move around the figure* declaration to achieve the desired location within your document.

stfloats provides a similar functionality.

Using \begin{figure*}[!b] worked for me.
