According to Reep, (2006) “Document design refers to the physical appearance of a document… the written text and its presentation work together to provide readers with the information they need”. As example 4.4 show, the group presented the introduction towards the topic and a general introduction was done to guide the readers the text by directing attention to the individual topics just as Barnhardt (2009) said “The physical fact of that text… requires visual apprehension: a text can be seen, must be seen…” which they have done.

During the presentation, images help illustrate what the presenters want to say, using visual aids their able to project a certain view which readers can understand as text helps images. As example 5.5 shows when structured, text highly informative visuals share features of the text to help explain things that text alone cannot, according to Barnhardt (2009). I believe that my group presentation was composed and presented well, with visuals and text helping hand in hand to explain our views on Semiotics. The proportion of the placement of text and graphic aids was visible in the presentation Reep (2006).
