3 types of pictures
JPEG, PNG, GIF
Can support 16.7 million colors, best quality image to integrate with your document, but does not support transparency.
JPEG

Clip Art
These are printable objects that you can integrate into your document to enhance its appearance.
Shapes
These are predefined sets of different shapes grouped to form ideas that are organizational or structural.
Smart Art
Allows you to represent data characteristics and trends. It can be very useful when preparing reports that correlate and present data in a graphical manner.
Chart
Allows you to integrate a more realistic image of what you are discussing on your report or manual through a ________.
Screenshot
The default setting for inserted images, and treats your image as a text font.
In-Line with Text.
Allows the image inserted to be placed anywhere within the paragraph with the text going around the image in a square pattern like frame.
Square
Almost the same as a square setting, but here the text “hugs” or conforms to the general shape of the image, and allows to get a more creative effect on the document.

Behind Text
Allows image to be placed right on top of the text as if your image was dropped right on it covering the text.
In Front of Text
3 PRINCIPLES AND BASIC TECHNIQUES OF IMAGE MANIPULATION
choose the right file format, choose the right image size, and caption it
6 BASIC PRINCIPLES OF GRAPHICS AND LAYOUT
Balance, Emphasis, Movement, Pattern, Proportion, and Variety
The visual weight of objects, texture, colors, and space is evenly distributed on the screen
Balance
Aims to make the specific element stand out or draw attention
Emphasis
Visual elements that guide the viewer’s eyes around the screen
Movement
These are repeating visual elements on an image or layout to create interest, movement, and unity in the layout or image.
Pattern, Repetition, and Rhythm
Difference of Pattern, Repetition, and Rhythm
PATTERN repeats elements such as shapes and colors, REPETITION repeats a single element many times in a design, and RHYTHM is achieved when visual elements create a sense of organized movement.
The relationship of two or more elements in a design and how they compare with one another concerning size or quantity.
Proportion
This uses several design elements to draw a viewer’s attention.
Variety
These are used to represent information, statistical data, or knowledge in a graphical manner usually done in a creative way to attract the viewer’s attention.
Information Graphics or Infographics
