Give the reader a route through the evidence
A project update needs different emphasis from a research report. Start by naming the reader and the question the document must answer. A useful structure is an executive finding, the evidence behind it, the implications and the next decision.
Choose a document canvas for a reading experience or a presentation canvas for a discussion. Tessuvi lets you work with both; a dense report should not be treated as a deck with smaller text.
Match the visual to the evidence
| Question | Useful visual |
|---|---|
| How does one category compare? | A bar or lollipop chart with the same units and scale. |
| What changed over time? | A line chart with dates in the correct order. |
| What makes up a total? | A pie or donut when the categories really are parts of the same whole. |
| What needs a decision? | A comparison table with the trade-offs written beside the options. |
| What do we know, and from where? | An evidence ledger that pairs a claim with its source and limitations. |
Separate a design improvement from a factual change
Use a focused editing mode when you want to adjust copy or design without changing the entire document. Select the relevant page for a local revision, then inspect the resulting version before sharing it.
Chart and table examples are demonstration data. Replace them, label units and time periods, and confirm that categories remain comparable. A polished chart with an unsupported number is still unsupported.
- Use descriptive headings that make sense when read as a list.
- Keep sources near the claims they support.
- Split an overcrowded table instead of shrinking it past a comfortable reading size.
- Explain uncertainty and missing data in the report itself.
Make the hand-off part of the work
Publish a snapshot when you want readers to see a deliberate version. Update that publication after making changes you want them to receive. Use PDF for a stable reading copy and keep the editable project for future reporting cycles.
Before sending the file, check page order, image crops, tables and long headings in the exported result. When a report includes a CV or personal details, choose recipients and link permissions deliberately.
