Ecofont - Save 20% Ink for Free
The prints we make for our 'daily use' not only use paper, but also ink. But your ink cartridges (or toner) could last longer. We have therefore developed a new font: the Ecofont."After Dutch holey cheese, there now is a Dutch font with holes as well." Appealing ideas are often simple: how much of a letter can be removed while maintaining readability? After extensive testing with all kinds of shapes, the best results were achieved using small circles. After lots of late hours (and coffee) this resulted in a font that uses up to 20% less ink. Free to download, free to use. There is also a print solution for business environments: Ecofont Professional.
