One area where it is helpful to illustrate, and where it is technically trivially easy in many cases is tables of numeric data. Programs to transform these into graphic representations have been available as mass-market software at least since 1990. I would suggest that one criteria is that all tables of numeric data are accompanied by a graphic representation. At the level of techniques, there is information I have read when I studied this stuff explaining different kinds of graphing techniques, and some results of testing the different ones for usability. If anyone has current knowledge and experience some references would be helpful.
