Eco FONT ~ Less Is More..

QUOTE("source: http://www.ecofont.eu/results.html")
In the picture you can see how the Ecofont is created by omitting parts of the letter. At the shown size, this obviously is not very nice, but at a regular font size it is actually very usable. Naturally, the results vary depending on your software and the quality of your screen. The Ecofonts works best for OpenOffice, AppleWorks and MS Office 2007. Printing with a laser printer will give the best printing results.

Usage of Ecofont should start from government, esp education department to educate the young ones to save the earth. but most uni/college still choose Times New Roman... mad.gif

Actually, the best way to "save the planet" in term of ink usage is to use refills rather than the "empty one cartage throw out, use new one" practice.

I'm not sure whether it'll save toner for printers but all my printers @ home are laser printers so we'll see the difference. brows.gif
