Chapter 9. Inserting Graphics, Drawing Shapes , and Creating Text Effects

One of the perks of using a powerful word processing program is that you get to put pictures in your documents. Graphics help break up the text, convey meaning, and grab the reader's attention. Plus they are just plain fun to work with. Here, you start by learning how to insert an image in your document. This could be a piece of clip art, a photograph or image that you've scanned, a drawing you created in another program, or an image you found on the Web. You then learn how to draw shapes and use WordArt to create special effects with text.
