Thanks for replies so far. I was vaguely thinking of InDesign after I saw a demo from Adobe's Senior Evangelist (now there's a job title!)
Nothing complicated or technical required...Just graphs and tables, and a few simple diagrams illustrating hierarchies etc. Nothing scientific required...my topic is more about information management. I'm just sad and read NS in my spare time
Anyone used MS Visio?
Err are you trying to fake your data- or just planing to make it look less dodgy??? The more complicated a graph is, the more scientific it is- so don't forget to add some nice interactive arrows, plentiful colour (especially RED), pictures of your lab mates and pet, make the type face of the figure ledgens as small as possible.
Oh, and Don't forget to include the Bedford logo at the top.
anonGerman - I'm not a scientist, I have no data to fake just a few things that I want to make look professional, as opposed to bodged together in Office By graph I mean something purely illustrative - you know, like in management textbooks...2x2 matrix with a few blobs of colour in each quadrant, a few big fat arrows and maybe even a few words.
Will check out the fine offerings from Adobe methinks...
A little aside/warning - I used screen capture to put some lovely results in a report once rather than plotting them in excel (the equipment came with software for displaying results on screen). The results looked so good that my interviewer thought they were faked!! (had to ask, 'are these actual results?')
