The SmartArt feature lets you create and customize designer-quality diagrams to convey information with graphics instead of just text. You can even convert bulleted lists into a diagram using the SmartArt diagram tools.
Click the SmartArt button in the Illustrations group.
A dialog box opens, displaying categories of SmartArt on the left, styles of SmartArt graphics in the middle, and a preview and description of the selected SmartArt on the right.
Select a category.
Select a graphic.
Click OK.
The selected SmartArt graphic is inserted.
Each part of the graphic contains placeholder text, ready for you to fill it in.
