Subject: Introducing graphics
Greetings, gang.
How do you introduce graphics in your manuals? For example, in procedures,
do you write, "[Do this], and then click Save, as shown in the following
image"? Do you use the "image" or "graphic" or "illustration"? (I deal with
screenshots of software programs and Web apps.)
Any thoughts? TIA
