With our economy in shambles, our perspectives are shifting more toward our penny pinching grandfathers. Sustainability is essential, and consumption is under the microscope. One thing you can do is check out the Dutch design company, SPRANQ, who have created a new font called ecofont. It uses 20% less ink and is free to download, so give it a try. I found that it works best on type 12 points and under.
