What I Need to Know
What’s In

A smartArt graphic is a visual presentation of information. In MS Word,

we can quickly and easily create SmartArt graphics.

SmartArt graphics turn ordinary text into more visually appealing

information. This also makes important information easier to understand. Also,
instead of using shapes when creating diagrams, MS Word has an advanced
feature that automatically creates shapes for the diagram.

 What are the steps in inserting SmartArt graphics in a document?

 How do we design and format SmartArt graphics using the SmartArt
tools?
