Photo reblogged from The Daily What with 32 notes

A font that supposedly uses less ink. Though I imagine that depends on what kind of printer you use… thedailywhat: Introducing “Ecofont” — the world’s first eco-friendly font. From the creators’ website: A good idea is always simple: how much of a letter can be removed while maintaining the readability? After extensive testing with all kinds of shapes the best results were achieved by using small circles. Lots of late hours (and coffee) later have resulted in a font that uses up to 20% less ink. You can download the font here. (via.)

    Can we achieve a similar result with screens of black for less ink coverage?

    Interesting in theory, not so sure about practice. I’m willing to try it though. What will my teachers say?
