The research into the field of information graphics (infographics) is important, and should be understood by all practitioners of visual communication and graphic design. Infographics is defined as a way of visually communicating complex information quickly and clearly to an audience, for example through signs, symbols, graphs, instruction manuals or maps (Gomez-Palacio, B. & Vit A. 2009). Although the end result is essentially a graphic or an image, there are some key differences from creating a pretty picture to creating an infographic that actually works. These differences are mainly in regard to the design’s purpose being effectively conveying data or information.
