By learning to use the three key
elements of PowerPoint – text,
picture, and shape – you can
create high-quality infographics.
Throughout this template, you’ll
learn a number of ways to use
these three elements to create
your graphics.
While there are three essential
elements, there are four essential
tools that you will be using to
design your infographics: fill,
line, effects, styles. These four
elements will help build your
color scheme, shape style, and
font styles.
Fill
Effects
Line
Style
The fill of an object or text will
determine the primary color of
that object or text. For example,
the fill of this box is dark purple.
The line of an object will determine
the color of the outline
surrounding an object. The line of
this box is dotted yellow. You can
use the line of an object to make it
stand out among colored
backgrounds or give it a border.
The shape styles give you the
option to choose from a number of
pre-designed colors, lines, and
effects that can be applied to your
graphics. This can be used for
objects, lines, and text.
The effects will give you the ability
to add some design elements to
your graphics. You can work with
a variety of features that include
shadows, bevels, outer glows, and
3D effects.
The Essential
PowerPoint Tools & Elements
How to Create
INFOGRAPHICS
In PowerPoint
Infographics are a powerful tool that companies and marketers can use to
capture the attention of their target audiences. In fact, according to
AnsonAlex, publishers who use infographics grow an average of 12% more
in traffic than those who don’t. Infographics allow you to present what
would normally be hard-to-digest information, in a way that readers can
enjoy and understand. The problem lies in finding the time and resources to
do so.
That’s why we’ve created ten fully customizable templates that will give you
the inspiration and foundation you need to build your own infographics
right in PowerPoint. But first, let’s dive into some tools you can use to
customize these templates.
About These Templates
Saving Your Infographic
Once your infographic is ready, you’ll need to save the PowerPoint
slide as an image. Simply go to File  Save As and select PNG
(Portable Network Graphics). Saving the slide in PNG is an important
aspect of your final product. The PNG format is the only file type that
will give your infographics the high quality they need for publishing.

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
own side on the page.
You can do this by choosing one color for
each side, and then use the basic shapes to
create two parts to your infographic. As you
can see, we’re using blue and red with white
as the general font color.

GROUP YOUR SHAPES
When creating custom graphics
from an assortment of shapes, it
can help to “group” those shapes
when you need to resize or move
them around your infographic.
You can do this by right clicking the
object above, navigate to
“Grouping,” and click “Ungroup” to
break this object into its individual
shapes. To regroup it, just highlight
all the pieces, right click, and
choose “Group” from the menu.
Hold the Shift key to select more
than one element at a time.
SHAPES THAT LOOK LIKE GRAPHS
BAR GRAPHICS CAN BE EASILY MADE
Learn to use a variety of shapes
to create interesting graphs,
charts, and other visualizations
to show off your data points.
31
Each of these icons was created from
individual shapes and lines offered by
PowerPoint. Using a combination of basic
shapes, rectangles, and lines, we were able
to create some commonly used icons for
infographics.
You should start by choosing a base color.
We used white as the base color of our
icons and blue or red to create the details.
Don’t forget to hold the Shift key when
selecting multiple pieces of one icon. Once
you’ve selected each element of the icon,
you should “group” it so that you can more
easily move and scale the object.
The icons seen here are not limited to any
particular color scheme, size, or shape.
Experiment with your own company colors
and style to find what works for you.
Try sticking to a few main
colors for your infographics.
This will give your designs a
professional feel that looks
vibrant but not too busy.
The goal of this infographic is
to illustrate two distinctly
different sides and compare
them visually for the viewers.
Breaking your data into two
sides will do the job well.

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.

You’ll notice that this infographic was created entirely from basic shapes
and alternating font sizes. 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
TOO MUCH
WHITE SPACE
An 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.

  • 8. 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 own side on the page. You can do this by choosing one color for each side, and then use the basic shapes to create two parts to your infographic. As you can see, we’re using blue and red with white as the general font color. 2 DIFFERENT FONTS 1 1 FOR HEADERS FOR TEXT 50 50 GROUP YOUR SHAPES When creating custom graphics from an assortment of shapes, it can help to “group” those shapes when you need to resize or move them around your infographic. You can do this by right clicking the object above, navigate to “Grouping,” and click “Ungroup” to break this object into its individual shapes. To regroup it, just highlight all the pieces, right click, and choose “Group” from the menu. Hold the Shift key to select more than one element at a time. SHAPES THAT LOOK LIKE GRAPHS BAR GRAPHICS CAN BE EASILY MADE Learn to use a variety of shapes to create interesting graphs, charts, and other visualizations to show off your data points. 31 Each of these icons was created from individual shapes and lines offered by PowerPoint. Using a combination of basic shapes, rectangles, and lines, we were able to create some commonly used icons for infographics. You should start by choosing a base color. We used white as the base color of our icons and blue or red to create the details. Don’t forget to hold the Shift key when selecting multiple pieces of one icon. Once you’ve selected each element of the icon, you should “group” it so that you can more easily move and scale the object. The icons seen here are not limited to any particular color scheme, size, or shape. Experiment with your own company colors and style to find what works for you. Try sticking to a few main colors for your infographics. This will give your designs a professional feel that looks vibrant but not too busy. The goal of this infographic is to illustrate two distinctly different sides and compare them visually for the viewers. Breaking your data into two sides will do the job well.

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 TOO MUCH WHITE SPACE An 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. Your logo here:
