Turn an article into a visual story
Most readers leave a long article halfway through, with half the point; paste it into Infograph and get a story of cards they scroll to the end, with every fact taken from the piece.
The story keeps the article’s order, dates and names, and adds no facts of its own.
Made from this text
Before and after: a long history article
Before: the article excerpt, as pasted
The printing press: a history of making copies Before the press, every copy of a page meant writing it out again by hand. Woodblock printing changed that: one carved block held a whole page, ready to ink and print. The Diamond Sutra, printed in China and dated 868, is one of the earliest printed texts that carries a date. Movable type went a step further. Printers could set separate characters, print the page and use the characters again. In Europe, the Gutenberg Bible is associated with 1455. Steam came next: in 1814 The Times installed a steam-powered cylinder press. The breakthrough was never a faster hand. It was a surface that remembers the page.
After: the story
Long pieces lose readers halfway
A visual story keeps the argument in order but gives each idea room to breathe. Infograph splits the article into parts, pulls out the dates, names and figures, and lays them out as timelines, charts, quotes and steps. Long pieces stay long, but they become easy to follow.
Three steps
Paste the article
Copy the full text from your draft, a newsletter or a web page. Longer pieces become longer stories, split into chapters.
Pick a template
Choose the look that suits your publication, from a clean editorial page to Papercraft or Diorama.
Share or export
Embed the story next to your article, send the link, or export a PDF to attach to an email.
Every number comes from your source
Readers trust an article because its facts were checked. Infograph keeps that trust by showing only the dates and figures that are in your text, never new ones.

Questions
Can I put the story on my own site?
Yes. Every story gets a share link and an embed code. The embed scrolls just like the full story, so it can sit right under the article.
Will it rewrite my article?
It shortens each part into a card title and a few lines in plain words, but it keeps your facts, names and numbers. You can change the wording on any card before you publish.
Can I make a story from someone else’s article?
You can make one for your own reading. Before you publish or share it, make sure you have the right to use the text, as you would when quoting any article.
