Graphics
Business
graphics
programs convert numerical
information-
monthly forecasts, regional figures, dcpatlIncnta]
budgets-inw
presentation-quality bar, line, pie,
and
scatter graphs. Graphics
generated
with your compUler can
enhance
presentations
and
aid
in
business decisions. Most business graphics programs arc
designed
to
receive spreadsheet
and
dau
base
files,
so
you
don't have to
retype
numbers
and
labels. You just transfer
the
data
10
the graphics
program
and
view the results.
An
artistically oriented graphics
program
is
to
an
anist what a
word
processor is to a
writer-it
encourages
you to
try
a v:ariety
of
approaches
before
you commit a
drawing
to a paper. Some
graphic> progr3ffiS
come
with a disk
full
of
drawings with which you
can
create grc<:ting cards, signs,
banners,
or
pictures.
With
desktop
publishing
software, you can
layout
newsleuers,
catalogs,
or
newspaper
pages---complete with different type styles,
adjustable
column
widths, lines,
and
bars.
Integrated
software
l..ntegr:ltcd
software
is
a
group
of
application progr3ffiS designed to
work together
and
share
data. A typical integrated software package
includes
word
processing, data base,
and
spreadsheet
programs.
With integrated software,
you
can
combine
information
created
with different applications into
one
doeument.
For
example,
you
can
write a report with a
word
processing program
and
then
add
a
statistics section from a data base
and
a
budget
section from a
spreadsheet
program
.
Another
advantage
of
integrated software is that the
commands
you
learn for
one
application Oike
word
processing) work similarly in
the
package's
other
applications. This
shortens
learning time
and
enhances
productivity.
