I'm saving the environment!*



*stupid font uses the same amount of toner as the default fonts from Office 2007+, looks like poo poo, and has terrible spacing that results in more wasted paper.

Yes I actually had to quantify this poo poo at a previous job to tell the people requesting it to gently caress off. Microsoft already has your back on this, don't worry about. Set narrow margins and double-sided printing instead

 Yeah, brother worked at a paper mill or something. This was back in the mid 2000's and since then total sales have sorta flatlined but the industry is maintaining a 15% margin so that guy can eat a dick

code:
				2011	2012	2013	2014	2015
Revenue (in billion US$)	98.5	106	103.2	95.79	96.1
Net income (in billion US$)	4.21	5.79	7.11	5.47	4.27
EBITDA margin (in %)		13.9	14.6	17.2	15	15
ROCE				6.2	6.8	8.7	5	10
