  • @fnd thanks, however I have problem, when I set the size of picture the quality degrades and about half of my pic fall outside: \begin{figure*}[t] \centering \includegraphics[width=cm, scale=1]{pic1.eps} \end{figure*} – Hosein Aqajani Sep 29 '15 at 05:10
  • post a toy example of your code. Maybe the problem is not figure* environment. – fnd Sep 29 '15 at 14:33

Add one of these examples for test.

For figures 

\begin{figure*}[t]\centering
  \fbox{FOO \hspace{.8\linewidth} BAR} 
  \caption{Foo bar}
\end{figure*}

And for tables

\begin{table*}[t]\centering
  \begin{tabular}{c|c}
    FOO & BAR \\ \hline
    \dots & \dots
  \end{tabular}
  \caption{Foo bar}
\end{table*}

if you want put figure or table on a dedicated page, replace [t] by [p].

EDIT: I test with both examples, on the template that you use and works well.

Example using the template

Now obviously, you have other problem. If you compile with pdfLatex, you must include preferable *.pdf or *.png images. For example, if you have a image.png, use the name of the file without extension.

\includegraphics[width=.95\linewidth]{image}

But if you compile with other tools, that result in dvi or ps, then you must include preferable *.eps images. However, the code is the same.

\includegraphics[width=.95\linewidth]{image}

So, I recommend provide two version of the images one in pdf and other in eps. There is a ps2pdf tool that converts eps to pdf.

For more details read LaTeX/Importing Graphics at wikibooks.
