CREATING A FOUR COLOR INFOGRAPHIC When creating an infographic, you should start by determining what color scheme you would like to use. A four color setup gives you plenty of creative freedom to work with. More than that can look a bit chaotic. USE CLIP ART, CUSTOM SHAPES, AND FONTS Microsoft has a variety of clip art that you can download from their online database. OVER 400 OPTIONS Fonts like Wingdings can be used to add custom icons and images to your text. Combining custom shapes can give you a variety of useful images to convey your data. Change a shape’s look by altering the colors of the Fill and Line of that shape. Double click your shape to access those options in the tool bar at the top. 50% BREAK UP YOUR SECTIONS WITH A CHANGE IN STYLE A helpful tip about breaking up your infographic into distinguishable sections is to simply change up the style. You can use a different set of custom shapes or text, or inverse the color scheme. This can help indicate to viewers that they are now looking at a section of statistics or a section of explanatory information.

CONVEYING STATISTICS There are times when we have a staggering amount of information that we can’t present with an image-heavy infographic. These times call for styles of design that focus more on the fonts and how they can give your infographic a professional look without the clutter of too many images.

By focusing your design on two simple aspects, you can accomplish an intricate outcome. For an infographic of this style, I would suggest using no more than three colors and stick to one font to make things simpler. DON’T LEAVE TO MUCH WHITE SPACEAn important thing to remember when designing an infographic is to keep your use of white space to a minimum. Although white space can be useful, too much will spread your data too far apart and break the flow of your infographic. When you’ve finished designing your graphic, take a few minutes to adjust and move your elements around to find that perfect level of spacing.

COMPARING TWO SIDES OF THE SAME COIN When creating an infographic for comparing data, one of the easiest design tips is to simply split your infographic in half. Use two distinct colors and give each set of data its ownsideonthepage. You can do this by choosing one color for eachside, andthenusethebasicshapesto create two parts to your infographic.
