Infolehed

Infolehed is the Estonian term for short information sheets or fact sheets issued by organizations to convey essential details about a topic, service, program, or event. The word combines info for information and leht, meaning sheet or leaf; the plural form is infolehed. They are designed to be concise and easy to skim, often including a title, a brief summary, a bulleted list of key points, practical details such as dates and locations, and contact information.

They are used to inform the public, clients, or participants about obligations, procedures, benefits, or opportunities. They are common in government agencies, educational institutions, healthcare facilities, non-profit organizations, and businesses, and are typically distributed at points of service, events, or via digital channels.

The design emphasizes clarity, with short sentences and plain language. Visuals like icons or simple diagrams may be included. Accessibility considerations, such as large print, high contrast, and alternative formats like large-print PDFs or screen-reader friendly versions, are commonly encouraged.

Formats include printed handouts, posters, or PDF documents; digital variants may be hosted on websites or sent by email. Many infolehed include a QR code or a link directing readers to more detailed information.
