It is important to improve the aesthetics and effectiveness of information graphics through greater awareness of graphic design as a visual communication discipline. Chart making is one subject area in which graphic design awareness can be enhanced. Basic design principles are reviewed which are relevant to creating better charts. Examples demonstrate improvements.Keywords
