As reported in CNN and other sources, 14-year-old Suvir Mirchandani studied the cost of using thick typeface such as Times New Roman on documents vs. thinner typefaces such as Garamond. The cost reduction of printing using thinner typeface could be an astounding $136MM/year at the Federal level and an additional $234MM at the state level. Small changes add up!
