6/10“Graphic designer's work… long and costly.”
5/10“Infographic production is entirely in the hands of the layout studio, for print purposes, with a web version produced in post-production. Not necessarily the most agile process…”
10/10“No option as comprehensive as Illustrator, and optimisations made over the years the solution has been in use.”
6/10“Illustrator is probably fine (although a bit heavy and not very "turnkey"), but above all it is the design studio's preserve, and the newsroom is completely unable to take charge of editorial infographics.”
5/10“Ramp-up expected.”
4/10“No thinking has begun on the subject of infographics and dataviz. The graphic designers/layout artists manage with a print-first approach, and possibly adapt for the website in post-production.”
4/10“Outdated but part of the Adobe suite.”
9/10“Excellent tool: creating and customising charts because it's a vector drawing tool; suited to very specific journalistic content in terms of visuals (you can mix drawings, charts, photos); collaborative work; makes it easy to adapt to a graphic charter.”
