PS Ch. 6-- "Word Tells Pictures"

In this blog we are supposed to write about why someone would use graphics while preparing a MS Word document, where they come from, and how to put them in Word. Well someone might use graphics in Word because they are making a newspaper, a pamphlet, a sign, a chart, a handbook, or invitations. Using graphics can help be more organized, clearer about what you’re saying, and put some creativity into your work. Most graphics people use in Word come from clip-art. To do this you go to Insert on the menu and choose Clip-art. The Clip-art task pane opens. From there you just type in a specific subject and it looks it up for you. After that you go through the list and decide which one you want. After choosing which one you want, click the arrow next to the picture. When the drop down list appears click on insert. Then you have a picture in your work. You can also get pictures and graphics off the internet. This is how you put pictures into your MS Word document and why you would.
