ABOUT PICTURES Pictures, graphics, and art are some generic terms used to describe the elements in your documents that aren't text (such as charts, illustrations, decorative elements, and photographs). 100,000 80,000 60,000 40,000 20,000 0 1992 1994 1996 2000 Charts and graphs Illustrations Decorative elements Photographs To put a picture in a document you want to print, you first need to get it into an electronic form (a computer file). Then it's simple to copy it into a document-the user's guide for the software program you're using tells you how. Here are some possibilities for getting your pictures into electronic form. s Draw the pictures yourself, using the drawing tools in a software program. s Use ready-made clip art-you can get it from a variety of sources, including the Internet and your software programs. See "Need a picture?" for more ideas. Handy Hints NEED A PICTURE? Look through computer magazines for the names of companies that sell clip art. They'll be happy to send you full-color pictures of their extensive offerings. Or browse in the art sections of bookstores for books of copyrightfree pictures. Remember that it is against the law to copy any photograph unless you have been given specific permission to do so by the person or company who owns the original. s Scan the pictures yourself. Use your own scanner or gather your pictures and rent a scanner at a local copy shop. 21
