Save Money on Printing

If you want to save money on printing, use draft mode and ecofont. This will save you a lot.
I print out a lot of my research, charts, logs, etc. I have used the draft mode (also called
quick print) often, and to save paper had been using Arial font. Using a larger font often
means more paper, so try printing on both sides also. I just downloadedecofont and hope
it saves me even more on printing by buying less ink cartridges. Ecofont is free:

Use fonts without installing

While searching for some new fonts, I found a way to use a font without actually installing it. Double click the downloaded font file, double click the .ttf file; while it is open (when you can view the examples of the font) you can use it. This is great if you want to just try out a font. Of course you can use The Font Thing to have all those extra fonts on hand, but I did like the fact that I can also just open up the file and check out how a new font might look and be able to use it right then and there.

This is the link that explains how to install a font, and the note how to use it in your program, ex. PSE or PS:
