Computer Tip: Use "Ecofont" to saves your Ink

Saturday, October 3, 2009


If you're really pinching pennies, or just a self-proclaimed eco-freak doing everything you can to save the earth, check out Ecofont. Ecofont is a computer font designed with pinprick holes throughout each character, thus allegedly saving 20% ink use over regular fonts. I think "draft mode" probably accomplishes a similar goal, but the idea is pretty clever. 

Ecofont is a free download for personal use so it can't hurt to give it a shot.  If you've got any thoughts on the matter, leave them in the comments.
