# Infographic
Turn one data file into a static infographic: a single PNG (plus its HTML
source) that tells the data's story with a hero stat, a numbered reading path,
pictograms, annotations, and a takeaway — composed as HTML/SVG and rendered
with headless Chromium. No image-generation APIs, no keys, fully offline,
every number deterministic.
**An infographic is not a poster.** A styled dashboard exported as an image
fails this skill's bar. Read `references/infographic-anatomy.md` before
composing anything — it defines the difference, the required components, the
budgets, and the verification checklist. The other three references cover
backbones (`layout-archetypes.md`), the six layout templates
(`infographic-templates.md`), and the level-keyed style packs
(`infographic-design-bank.md`).
## Content voice — ELI5, always
The `[MODE: ELI5_FOR_DUMMIES]` mandate from the html-report skill applies here
at EVERY level: everyday words, simple comparisons, short sentences, zero
fluff, for every word the canvas says. Levels change density and diction — an
eli5 canvas says "1 in 4 boxes came back", a pro canvas says "return rate
25.4%" — but never honesty or clarity. Column names and data values are the
user's data; never rewrite those.
