How it's used
Refers specifically to visual aids embedded within text to clarify content. While it is a standard term in publishing and design, it is rarely used in casual conversation unless discussing specific media or school assignments. It is distinct from general photography or fine art because it serves a functional purpose of supporting the written word.
