Lesson 5: Using Tables and Graphics

Lesson Summary

Graphics - screenshots, representational drawings, and tables - are an important part of technical writing. The key is to use them appropriately. Determine when they are needed and when they aren't. Make sure they fit the topic you're discussing and that you provide a short but informative caption for each graphic. Most importantly, make sure that you don't add graphics just for the sake of having pretty pictures in your book.
