Eliminating Chart-Junk
• Instead of using legends, insert labels on the bars/lines
• Delete all of the unnecessary colors
• 3D views distort the data; choose 2D views instead
• Make sure “gap width” between each column or each bar
is less than the width of the column or bar itself
• Eliminate unnecessary extra zeros by adding the word
“Thousands” or “Millions” to the axis label
• Consider labeling five-year intervals only
• Delete the extra title that appears when you import a
graph from Excel
