LaTeX tip: one counter for tables and figures
To use a single counter for tables and figures in the LaTeX document
in the preamble of the document. One can test it using dummy text, thanks to blindtext package, i.e.\makeatletter \renewcommand*{\thetable}{\arabic{table}} \renewcommand*{\thefigure}{\arabic{figure}} \let\c@table\c@figure \makeatother
\usepackage[english]{babel} \usepackage{blindtext}
for the preamble and
\blindtext \Blindtext
in the main body of the document to produce a paragraph or two of the dummy text.
