The law of gravity states that a reader tends to read left to right and top to bottom. Set out your screens such that the reader is pulled along and does not have to fight against this natural tendency. Do not put your writing all over the screen. Do not put pictures and illustrations in the way of writing. An example of a document that is hard to read is as follows.

Generally speaking, keep headings to the top of the page and allow the text to flow down to the bottom right-hand corner. Where necessary, use columns and/or text boxes. Do not put much text on a screen. Do not clutter or jam it onto the screen. Put images at top left or bottom right side of the screen.
Don't be afraid of using white spaces around the elements of your screens. Space is an important part of design and can be used very effectively remove the cluttered and blocked appearance of your work. Also, put borders around your objects to separate them form other objects.
Other tips
* Keep it simple!
* Don't try to use all the available space on one page. Spread out your work. "White space" adds colour.
* People prefer to read narrow columns rather than wide ones. Pages should usually be in portrait rather than landscape orientation. You very rarely see pages in landscape layout.
