Screenshots and other images can really help to communicate complex information more effectively, and they play a significant role in making your documentation more attractive and engaging. However, poorly executed or positioned graphics can have the opposite effect, so it is critically important to master some basic skills for working with images. This webinar demonstrates the potential power of graphics and explains a range of techniques for ensuring that your images are optimized for both print and onscreen outputs.
