Abstract. We review the morphological and spectral energy distribution characteristics of the dust continuum emission (emitted in the 40-200 µm spectral range) from normal galaxies, as revealed by detailed ISOPHOT mapping observations of nearby spirals and by ISOPHOT observations of the integrated emissions from representative statistical samples in the local universe.
