A high school student from Pittsburgh has discovered a simple but innovative method that could save the US government approximately $370 million (£222m) a year in printing ink costs: Change the typeface it uses.
Fourteen-year-old Suvir Mirchandani began his investigation into which typefaces used the least amount of printer ink as a science fair project at Dorseyville Middle School when he learnt of the large amounts of money his school was spending on printer ink.
