In this tutorial, you’ll learn how easy it is to insert graphics, pictures, or WordArt to your tables or charts. The thing to remember is to do it with taste and a purpose so that your audience is not overwhelmed or distracted from the data highlights that you want to emphasize.

1.Go to File>Open to open the workbook containing the table or chart where you want to insert a graphic or picture.

2.Click on the cell or chart area to select it and go to Insert>Picture>WordArt , You can also select ClipArt or From File, but for this example we’ll use WordArt. Next, select one of different WordArt options and click OK. Now, enter the text and click OK. Once the WordArt box is inserted, you can click on the actual image and move it around or click on its handles to minimize or maximize its size.

3.The key to remember with adding any type of graphic, wordArt or photos to an Excel table or chart is that it does not take away from the impact of the data, but that it works harmoniously with the data.

Well Done! Adding graphics, pictures, or WordArt to anything that will be presented or viewed if done tastefully can only enhance what’s being presented.
