2. Text

Text is one of the most common 'representation methods' used to communicate information.

Examples of text-based information include:

  • user manual for a new piece of software
  • company report about annual profit
  • internal memo about a meeting
  • email to arrange a party
  • letter to a customer confirming a delivery date
  • invoice to a customer
  • intranet containing information required by staff

Text based information is accessible to the majority of people. It is versatile and is easy to amend and update.
