ABSTRACT
Although the methods presented in Chapters 2, 3, and 4 will allow you to prepare 2-D charts and graphs for reports and presentations, they are often not as appealing and persuasive as enhanced 3-D charts. The difference between an ordinary and an enhanced chart can be compared to the difference between a sketch and an oil painting, or between a typed draft of an article and the typeset finished version. Straightforward 2-D charts communicate information clearly enough and are fine in reports, but for slide presentations or glossy publications, the audience has a higher expectation and an enhanced professional output is essential.
