Infographics on Reports

Colin1980

Morning all, I am looking at ways to make our reports more visual for clients by maybe including info graphics.

Does anyone else do this within their reports or recommend any sites that I can get some inspiration?

Thanks in advance!

We have a Howwow on report design coming up with some interesting news on graphics at the end.

I too look forward to the Howwow. In the meantime, have a look at Canva and have you explored icons in Word? They can be a great starting point for making reports a little more visual and drawing attention to important info, risk warnings, or signposting to other parts of the report.

Everywhere I have worked are very black and white with a basic touch of dark green/navy.

I am a big believer and would love reports to be more digitally interactive or graphic.

A number of clients prefer email and paperless but companies continue to use a paper based solution just sent over email. it does not make sense.

Reports in word format are bland, boring and you can achieve the suitability requirements in so many creative ways.

I disagree with this, you can do an awful lot in word, take a look at some of the examples on here
