Today's @latimes features the first web charts shipped to print with no extra production.

No Adobe Illustrator.
No CMYK conversion.
No resizing.

One chart. Two outputs.

It's all thanks to @Datawrapper tech, linked up with our system by @thomas06037 and @LoElebee.

It's fitting these charts appear in the Thanksgiving edition. They represent a significant streamlining of print work at @datagraphics.

Until today it required hours of staff time to double produce simple charts for web and print.

Now, thanks to @datawrapper, it's this easy.

This is the latest in a series of steps we're talking to minimize production work and refocus the team on reporting and visual storytelling.

I can't do it alone.

That's why I'm hiring a deputy to rally our staff and drive visual coverage. Sound fun? DM me

We're also looking for an aggressive reporter to join our graphics reporting team.

I want somebody who is fired up to get out there and cover the news with visualization, illustration, design.

Is that you? DM me.
