About photographs and pictures
Pictures (also called graphics) include photographs, illustrations, charts, and
decorative elements.
How to get a picture on your computer
To put a picture in a computer document, you first need to convert it into an
electronic form (a computer file). Then it’s simple to copy it into a document—the
guide for the application you’re using tells you how. Here are some possibilities for
getting your pictures into an electronic form:
● Draw the pictures, using the drawing tools in a software application.
● Use ready-made clip art. You can purchase libraries of clip art from a variety of
sources or browse the Internet for what’s available there. See “Need a picture?”
below 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.
The only limits will be
your desire and pocket-
book! Or browse in the
art sections of bookstores
for books of copyright-free
pictures such as old-
fashioned illustrations,
engravings, or elaborate
alphabets.
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 negative.
