The ''power counting'' theorem on the absolute convergence of Feynman integrals in momentum representation is presented, with emphasis on the diagrammatic interpretation. \textit{E. R. Speer} [Ann. Inst. Henri Poincaré, Sect. A 23, 1-21 (1975)] has shown that, for a certain choice of the powers of the propagators appearing in the integrand associated to a given Feynman graph (hence, in a complex neighbourhood of these powers as well), the integral converges absolutely. As a consequence, the resulting Feynman amplitude is a tempered distribution. The same is proved here for the corresponding integral in the coordinate representation. The latter integral equals the Fourier transform of the former.
