Half inch borders on paper would save paper About: Here's a legal way to print money: change the font Ed, I read the article on changing fonts to save ink. The article said changing fonts would not probably save paper. Has anyone ever wondered why there is a one inch border on typed papers as a default?That was the standard when I was in high school MANY years ago. I see many documents and written agendas, minutes of meetings etc. done with one inch borders with maybe two lines on a second sheet. Some organizations do print on the back of papers. I think saving paper use could improve with half inch borders. s/Vonnie Kolbenschlag 2010-04-07 11:39:24 | Comments | Printable version
