Who else might use computer graphics? Some examples:
A SALES REP (OR BROCHURE DESIGNER)
Computer graphics would help you simplify a complicated brochure in which twenty statistics proved the superiority of your company’s industrial dishwasher to Brand X’s.
There’s no question—graphics can liven up otherwise dull data, and remember: if people don’t read, there’s less chance they’ll buy. In that sense, sales literature isn’t so different from a newspaper. Again, though, bear in mind that the inexpensive computers may not produce graphics of professional smoothness.
A CORPORATE TRAINING OFFICIAL OR TEACHER
You can Xerox your Mac-drawn pictures of a widget maker or Mayan artifacts—perhaps even include them in test papers. And you or your audiovisual specialist can even prepare overhead slides by photocopying the drawings onto clear plastic sheets.
A BUREAUCRAT
The same slide technique could be a relief to bureaucrats preparing low- or mid-level briefing.
A PERSONNEL OR DIVISION MANAGER
What a boon to the addicted drafters of personnel charts!
