Educational Infographic Redesign

Visual Enhancement for Textbooks, Workbooks & e-Learning

Educational Infographic Redesign – Peacock Design Solutions

We Redraw Your Old Diagrams Into Clean, Print-Ready Artwork

Most publishers come to us with the same problem: the content is fine, the artwork is not. Hand sketches, screenshots pulled from a PDF, 72 dpi scans of a 1990s textbook plate, labels that no longer line up. Peacock Design Solutions rebuilds all of it — redrawn from scratch as clean vector artwork, correctly labelled, colour-corrected and supplied at full print resolution.

Educational infographic redesign is not tracing. We read the diagram, work out what it is actually teaching, and rebuild it so the important part is the part the student sees first. Weak hierarchy gets fixed, cluttered labels get repositioned with leader lines, inconsistent colours get pulled onto one palette, and every element becomes editable artwork you can reuse across print, e-book and e-learning.

We work with school and higher-education publishers, coaching institutes, e-learning teams, museums and training departments — on single figures, full chapter revisions and complete edition-wide artwork refreshes running into thousands of images.

The File They Sent Us, and the File We Sent Back

Real client work. Every marker points at something we changed, and why we changed it.

Client supplied

Study page with the author's handwriting on top

Original upper airway study page covered in handwritten annotations and highlighter, supplied by the client 1 2 3
  • 1Brown and pink highlighter sits directly on the words it is meant to emphasise, so the text underneath is lost.
  • 2The steeple-sign X-ray is a screen grab with a hand-drawn arrow and a clip-art steeple pasted beside it.
  • 3Late additions are squeezed into the margins in biro — several run off the edge of the page.
Our redraw

Every annotation typeset into the layout

Upper airway page redesigned by Peacock Design Solutions with colour-coded condition blocks and redrawn anatomy 1 2 3
  • 1Each condition gets its own coloured header band, so emphasis comes from the layout instead of from marker pen.
  • 2Anatomy and imaging redrawn as vector artwork, with the callout boxed and pointing at the right structure.
  • 3Margin notes brought into the page as set text, positioned beside the point they belong to.

Word document with coloured box borders

Original immunization revision sheet built in Word with plain coloured box borders, supplied by the client 1 2 3
  • 1Headings are the same size as the body text — only the border colour separates one topic from the next.
  • 2The anaphylaxis table uses the default grey header and hairline rules, so it recedes into the page.
  • 3An eleven-item indications list runs unbroken down the column with nothing to break the scan.

One palette, real hierarchy, scannable lists

Immunization revision sheet redesigned by Peacock Design Solutions with coloured header bands and icons 1 2 3
  • 1Every topic gets a filled header band from a four-colour palette, with the body set on white beneath it.
  • 2Table restyled to match the section colour, with banded rows and a clear header.
  • 3Each indication carries a small icon, so the list can be scanned rather than read line by line.

What the Client Gave Us, and What We Did

A typical brief arrives incomplete. Here's how we handle it.

What the client gave us

  • Screenshots lifted out of an old PDF, blurred and pixelated at print size.
  • Pencil sketches from the subject author, with arrows and notes in the margin.
  • Figures from three different editions, each in a different colour scheme and font.
  • Labels overlapping the artwork, pointing at the wrong part, or missing entirely.
  • A marked-up chapter PDF listing the corrections the subject editor wanted.

What we did

  • Redrew every figure as clean vector artwork — sharp at any size, from a thumbnail to a wall chart.
  • Built one colour palette and type scale, then applied it across the whole chapter so the figures read as a set.
  • Rebuilt the visual hierarchy so the concept being taught is the first thing the eye lands on.
  • Repositioned every label with clean leader lines, and checked each one against the author's copy.
  • Raised contrast and minimum type size so the artwork stays legible in print and on screen.

Services We Offer

Redesign and enhancement work for every kind of learning visual.

Raster to Vector Redraw

Blurred scans, screenshots and flattened JPGs redrawn as fully editable vector artwork that stays sharp at any print or screen size.

Sketch to Finished Figure

Author sketches, whiteboard photos and rough thumbnails turned into publication-quality diagrams, with the author's intent preserved.

Edition-Wide Style Refresh

One palette, one type scale, one line-weight system applied across every figure in a chapter, a book or a full series.

Label & Callout Rework

Overlapping and mispositioned labels rebuilt with clear leader lines, correct terminology and room for translation.

Multilingual Versions

Text kept on its own editable layer so the same figure can be released in every language your edition needs.

Accessibility Clean-Up

Contrast, minimum type size and colour-blind-safe palettes checked so no student is shut out by the artwork.

How We Work

01

Send Us the Originals

Share whatever you have — scans, sketches, screenshots, old print files. We audit each one and tell you what can be salvaged and what needs a full redraw.

02

Agree the Style

We redraw two or three sample figures and build a short style guide — palette, type, line weights, label rules — for you to sign off before the batch starts.

03

Redraw the Batch

The full set is rebuilt to the approved style, with each figure checked against your marked-up copy as it's finished.

04

Editorial Review

Your subject editor marks up the drafts and we work through the corrections in structured revision rounds until every figure is signed off.

05

Final Delivery

Artwork is delivered in every format you need — print-ready and digital — with layered source files so you can update it yourself later.

Frequently Asked Questions

Still have questions? We're a message away.

Contact Us

Yes. We treat a low-resolution file as a reference, not a starting layer — the figure is redrawn from scratch in vector, so the final artwork has no trace of the original pixelation. If a label is genuinely unreadable in your file, we flag it and ask you to confirm the wording rather than guess.

That's the point of the style guide step. Send us your existing pages or brand guidelines and we match the palette, typeface and line weights exactly. If you'd rather modernise the look, we propose a new system and apply it consistently across every figure in the set.

Yes. Large sets are scheduled in batches against your production calendar, with a fixed style guide and a single art director reviewing every batch, so the last figure matches the first.

High-resolution CMYK PDF and TIFF for print, RGB PNG and SVG for digital, plus the layered editable source file so your team can update labels or translate the artwork later.

A single figure is typically redrawn within 2–3 working days. Chapter and edition-wide sets are scoped individually, with a batch schedule shared at the start so you always know what lands when.

You do. Every commissioned figure is delivered with full royalty-free rights and the editable source file — reprint, adapt and distribute with no ongoing fees. You are responsible for holding the rights to any original material you send us.
