How to Add a Bubble Diagram to MS Word

A bubble chart is a diagram in which the data points are replaced with bubbles, and the size of the bubbles represents some additional dimension of the data. A bubble chart does not have the axis. A bubble chart can be used instead of a scatter diagram if the data has three dimensions, each of that containing the set of values. The sizes of the bubbles are determined by the values in the third dimension. Any additional information about the entities beyond their three primary dimensions can be depicted by rendering bubbles in colors and patterns that are selected in a certain way. The legend containing the further information can be added to a bubble diagram. ConceptDraw DIAGRAM allows you to easily create various business management and marketing charts, including bubble diagrams and then add them to a MS Word document.
