Platinum 8  

Description

This session focuses on three advanced techniques for more usable and interactive infographics. We will cover how to create PDF infographics using Adobe Illustrator, Photoshop and PowerPoint, knowing the result will be a user-driven experience. We will cover the "Slice" method, the "taggable content" method, and the "alternate content" method of presenting the user with more options than listening to a 3 paragraph alt-text description. You will learn techniques that allow the end-user to step through content on their own in a much more independent way.
