Chapter 11: Adding Visual Impact with Pictures and Objects

 < Day Day Up > 



Overview

You've probably heard that "a picture is worth a thousand words," and that's not just rhetoric. Think about what we see around us on the World Wide Web, in our mailboxes, in the newspaper, on TV. The words alone don't carry the message: the color, presentation, pictures, and style of the document capture our attention and ignite our imaginations. Consider this book, for example. It contains information that you want and need, but it wouldn't be as effective without the careful design of the pages and the screenshots, captured to show you what to look for as you try the procedures for yourself.

A picture can show at a glance what it takes words time to paint inside our heads. In a report, you'll need an entire paragraph (or a page!) to explain how a new product goes through a development cycle, but showing a diagram of the cycle will let your readers know instantly what the whole process looks like. This chapter explores ways you can use Word 2003 to bring images into your documents that add spark and interest, and just may get your point across more clearly, effectively, and persuasively.
