Louise Charlotta Kristiana Flodin, née Söderqvist (17 September 1828 – 20 March 1923), was a Swedish journalist, typographer, feminist and publisher.

Originally a teacher in her mother's school, she became an apprentice at a printing shop in 1856, and educated herself in typography, then unusual for a woman.

She employed only women to the paper: this was deliberate, because she wished to educate females to become typographers and journalists and thereby make the profession more available to them.

She supervised all phases in the making of the paper from the writing to the printing and instructed her own typographers in the profession from the start.

[2] She was not the first female editor in Sweden - women founded and managed papers in the 18th century - but she was the first woman to be officially licensed as such, and she was seen by her contemporaries as a pioneer who opened a new field of profession for women.
