I want to place small graphics in the outer margins of my 2-sided document. I've been using, e.g.,

\marginpar[{\hfill
\includegraphics[scale=.3]{figures/ivy-univ.png}\hspace{8 pt}
}]{
\includegraphics[scale=.3]{figures/ivy-univ.png}
}

It works fine on the right-hand page margins, but the graphic overlaps the text on the left-hand pages. I've been playing with the \hfill, \hspace and with using \marginnote, but can't get it right. \marginnote got the position right, but didn't recognize left vs right page properly. Any help is appreciated.

  • Do you get overfull \hbox warnings? Maybe the graphics is too large for the margin?

    use width=\marginparparwidth rather than scale=.3 then it will not be too large for the space
