Gantt Chart Using Word Product Roadmap Infographic

Tech architecture infographic titled "Gantt Chart Using Word" using HOW-IT-WORKS archetype. Create a product-roadmap style infographic for a two-year horizon rendered as a structured Gantt chart timeline in Microsoft Word-style document context. Show labeled boxes and feature cards arranged across quarter columns with horizontal bars, arrows, and clear timeline flow. Layout split into 3 horizon sections: "Now", "1 Year", and "2 Year+", while also showing accurate quarter columns across 2 years: Q1, Q2, Q3, Q4, Q5, Q6, Q7, Q8. Include swim lanes by team where applicable, such as "Editor UX", "Templates", "Collaboration", "Export & Sharing", and "Performance". Each lane contains realistic feature pills with status indicators: "Planned", "In Progress", "Shipped". Use believable, non-hyped feature names such as "Timeline Table Template", "Manual Date Alignment", "Shape-Based Milestone Markers", "Theme Color Presets", "Dependency Arrow Formatting", "Printable Roadmap Layout", "Comment-Based Review", "PDF Export Cleanup", "Large Document Performance", "Quarter Header Presets".

Render every roadmap item as a labeled BOX or pill with: a small icon, feature name, and one-line English role description, for example "Timeline Table Template — Base layout for schedule visualization", "Dependency Arrow Formatting — Connect tasks with visual links", "Comment-Based Review — Collect feedback on roadmap drafts". Connect related boxes with ARROWS showing sequence or dependency direction across the timeline. Each arrow must have a short English label such as "template setup", "date update", "review feedback", "export output", "formatting pass", "performance tuning". Include a central document/workspace box labeled "Word Document" with role description "Editable roadmap canvas for timeline planning", and supporting boxes such as "Template Library", "Shape Tools", "Review Comments", "Export Output", and "Team Owners" to make the diagram read like a technical how-it-works infographic rather than a generic business slide.

Add a numbered legend 1-7 explaining the lifecycle in English: 1. Select a roadmap template in the Word document. 2. Define quarter columns and horizon sections. 3. Place feature bars into team swim lanes. 4. Mark each feature with Planned, In Progress, or Shipped status. 5. Add dependency arrows and milestone markers. 6. Review updates with comments and edits. 7. Export or share the final roadmap. Ensure timeline labels, horizon labels, and quarter progression are internally accurate for a two-year span.

Visual style: sketchnote-inspired editorial developer-blog illustration, isometric or flat tech-diagram style, vector-clean infographic layout. Use tech blue + gradient palette with white background, blue ink outlines, soft cyan-to-indigo gradients, subtle hand-drawn accents, sticky-note feel, neat marker-style framing, but keep labels crisp and status text sharp. Overall mood: practical, product-planning focused, trustworthy, modern, lightly hand-sketched but structured and readable. Emphasize quarter columns, horizon bands, team swim lanes, status pills, and feature cards. No excessive marketing claims, no futuristic fantasy elements.

All text MUST be written in English (array). Every heading, label, caption, legend and metric name in the image must be in English — not English. Spell each English word correctly using English characters and diacritics. Numbers stay as digits, no real cloud-vendor logos (AWS / GCP / Azure) — use generic cloud icons, no watermarks Status labels rendered sharp. Realistic feature names — no overpromising. Quarter / horizon labels accurate.
