Notes: • The SI system units of measurements are used in Estonian documentation.
• The rare non-metric exceptions include some wide-spread inch-based units in the computer area, e.g.
floppy disk sizes, print/scan resolutions etc. The physical dimensions of the equipment, paper sizes
etc. are expressed in millimeters, instead of, or in addition to, inches.
Percentages
There is no space between number and % symbol (95%).
Sorting
Sorting rules
1. Capital letters and lowercase letters are equal. No distinction is made between them.
2. The extended characters õ, ä, ö, ü, š and ţ are not the equivalents of a, o or s but treated as
separate letters of the alphabet. Please see the alphabet above
4. Other accented characters are equal with non-accented characters; so é and e are equal.
5. Non-alphabetical characters (i.e. symbols like @ ! #) sort before the letters of the alphabet.
6. Digits sort after the non-alphabetical characters and before the letters of the alphabet.
