Here’s a website offering a font that helps save ink. Please follow this link: http://www.ecofont.eu/ecofont_en.htmlSPRANQ has come up with this unique, innovative product. This font was developed based on a hunch of Colin Willems of SPRANQ.
The font is known as Ecofont and uses up to 20% less ink when compared to other fonts.
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.
The Ecofont is based on the Vera Sans, an Open Source letter, and is available for Windows, Mac OSX and Linux. The Ecofont works best when using font size 9 or 10. The results vary depending on your software. If you work on a Windows platform you could use ClearType.
This font is available for free download. Saving the toner used in ink cartridges is another small way in which we can give something back to the environment. I have marked the editorial team on this.
You can download this font for free at the Ecofont website: http://www.ecofont.eu/ecofont_en.html
