• Title is the main title for a graph, which helps to identify the graph. Titles and labels for graphs also include:

• Subtitle is an additional title for a graph, displayed under the main title in a smaller font.

• Footnote is explanatory text related to the data displayed by the graph.

  For additional information on displaying and formatting titles and labels for a graph, see Creating titles and labels.
