Computer Application Software Guide / Comp 2000: Adding Tables, Charts, Images, and Graphics

Adding Tables, Charts, Images, and Graphics

On the Insert tab, in the Illustrations Group, select the type of object you want to insert, navigate to the file (if appropriate) and click Insert or OK. 

The Charts icon () will allow you to enter data and create a new chart within Word. 

A new feature in the Insert Ribbon is the Screenshot tool, which allows you to take a picture of any open window or part of the screen. 

Once an image is inserted, the Format Ribbon will appear, displaying editing and Text Wrapping tools

do not wrap text on the left and right of the image. In the Text Wrapping, be sure to choose either In Line with Text or Top and Bottom. Depending on what you choose, when you add a caption, the caption may end up in its own textbox.

With figures, charts and tables you need to ad captions:

1. Right click the image or chart and select Insert Caption from the menu
2. Place the cursor where you want to add a caption and select Insert Caption from the References tab on the ribbon
