You may think of PhotoShop when it comes to everything design. But to learn how to effectively create slides in it is not so simple, especially for those who have no knowledge in design filed.

It is DesignCap Inforgraphic Maker with thousands of ready-made pro templates and millions of other art resources. With the handy editing tools and the vast resource solutions, it will help you create concise, modern and stylish infographics without any extra effort.

Whatever the central issue you are dealing with, the first step is to be very clear about what you want to expose graphically and visually, and obtain all the data that you are going to cover in the infographic.

Once we have the topic and the information collected, the next step is to pick a desired template in DesignCap to define how we are going to show everything in the design. Browsing the list of infographic templates, you will finally get one you like or be inspired to start a design from scratch.
