The document provides examples of different types of informational materials: a NHS leaflet, instruction manual, how-to guide, and news article. Each example shows how visual design elements like fonts, colors, images and formatting are used to effectively communicate information and guide the reader through important steps or content. These design choices help emphasize key points, separate different sections, and ensure the materials are easy to understand and follow.

1. Factual writing

2. Leaflets
The title to the leaflet has been placed in a
large and bold font. The colour used is a calm
blue. This certain colour has been used as the
leaflet is promoting the NHS and blue is a
calming colour.
A selection of
two important
tips have been
provided
underneath the
title. These have
been colored in
black to stand
out form the
pale blue colour
of background.
A section at the bottom of the leaflet has been bordered off and the text within has
been changed white to stand out from the colour of the background that is dark blue.
The reason for this is because the text provided is for a the are / number of the NHS
and is important (as to why it has been made to stand out)
The font of the text has been kept the same throughout
the entire leaflet, this has been done to keep it simple
and easy to read. The colour of the text has been
separated into three main colours (Blue, Black and
white). Each of these colours stand out very well against
the chosen colour of background.
