I have a document and want to create it as a twocolumn-document. That works fine with the twocolumn-option at the documentclass-command. But I have some tables and images, that are too big and should be included using both columns. These tables and images should be mostly on the same page, so \onecolumn and \twocolumn is no option (with some exceptions). I tried the multicol-package, but strangely I lost my tables this way. So knows anyone another solution?
Give the \onecolumn command just before the section whose structure you need to change (but this section has to start on a new page, that is, after a \newpage command). To switch back to 2 columns, use \twocolumn the same way.
LaTeX Multiple Columns Text with two or double columns can be created by passing the parameter \twocolumn to the document class statement. If you want to create a document with more than two columns, use the package multicol, which has a set of commands for the same.
Yes, if you just need it for tables and figures use the *-variant:
\begin{table*}
\end{table*}
\begin{figure*}
\end{figure*}
With them they will occupy both columns.
