At present, with the rapid development of society, digital media has become the mainstream of vision. Digital vision makes people form a new reading form of “Super-Attention”. The visual performance of letterpress printing conforms to this new form of visual reading very well. It is different from the tactile feeling of ordinary printing that further packages and shapes the original information and improves the expectation of information interpretation and experience to a high level. At the same time, the manual culture highlighted by letterpress printing is also one of the best means to cushion the tension of inconsistent technology and culture in modern society. We don't know the result of the confrontation between paper and digital media, but letterpress printing in digital society has shown its unique “Paper-Based” feelings. Through detailed analysis of the historical evolution of letterpress printing, the comparison between traditional letterpress printing and modern letterpress printing, this paper presents clearly the development of letterpress printing for readers, so that readers can truly understand this unique traditional process; and then it elaborates on the application of modern letterpress in creative products and the development status quo of modern letterpress at home and abroad. This paper probes into how to popularize the new nirvana letterpress once again, thus providing a set of modern application attempt of letterpress printing - Rejuvenation of Letterpress information visualization design, and from practice, looking for letterpress regeneration after integrating new design ideas in the new media era.

In the context of the era of intelligence, the capacity and function of data is expanding, and is playing an irreplaceable role in the field of sports news. This paper studies the data expression mode of sports news. From the point of user needs and the characteristics of visual data, this paper discusses the methods and suggestions of data visualization design in CBA league news, in an attempt to form an intuitive, efficient and convenient visual form of sports news, which can promote the multi-dimensional development of visual symbols in sports news, and promote the progress of data analysis and prediction. The data visualization has become the core competitiveness of sports news.

‘Beautiful’ is an adjective often used in descriptions of well-designed data visualizations. How the concept is used, however, reveals that it is applied to characterize a variety of qualities. Going beyond mere descriptions, the use of the concept also lays bare a certain ambivalence among scholars and practitioners towards how beauty matters, and which means it serves in data visualization. Interrogating ‘beautiful’ as a characterizing word, combined with a study of cases of ‘best practice’ used as examples of beautiful visualizations in various discourses, this chapter presents an analysis of what is regarded as beautiful within the field of data visualization design. This, in turn, can inform the understanding of what beauty means in visualizing data, in the purpose of facilitating the viewer’s comprehension and engagement.

Designers are increasingly involved in creating ‘popular’ data visualizations in mass media. Scientists in the field of information visualization propose collaborations between designers and scientists in popular data visualization. They assume that designers put more emphasis on aesthetics than on clarity in their representation of data, and that they aim to convey subjective, rather than objective, information. We investigated designers’ criteria for good design for a broad audience by interviewing professional designers and by reviewing information design handbooks. Additionally, we investigated what might make a visualization aesthetically pleasing (attractive) in the view of the designers. Results show that, according to the information designers, clarity and aesthetics are the main criteria, with clarity being the most important. They aim to objectively inform the public, rather than conveying personal opinions. Furthermore, although aesthetics is considered important, design literature hardly addresses the characteristics of aesthetics, and designers find it hard to define what makes a visualization attractive. The few statements found point at interesting directions for future research.
