Saturdays at CPA Success are usually spent reviewing online tools that can help increase our productivity. Keep in mind that we do not endorse any of these services. We simply offer them up for your consideration. Do your own homework and find the service that best meets your needs.

You've swapped out your lightbulbs, traded in your SUV for a hybrid, gotten estimates on solar panels … heck, you've even switched to replantable Christmas trees. And still it's not enough.

How about using a new font?

Yeah, I know it sounds stupid. But a group of Dutch developers have created a new font that they believe will do its fair share to protect the environment.

It's called Ecofont, a Vera Sans-based font that has small, Swiss cheese-like holes in it to save on ink. In fact, the folks at SPRANQ, which developed the font, believe you will use up to 20 percent less ink by using Ecofont.

But how does it look? In an interview with the Associated Press, SPRANQ co-founder Gerjon Zomer admitted that “the font isn't beautiful, but … it could be adequate for personal use or for internal use at a company.”

The font is free to download. Check it out for yourself and tell us what you think.
