    I believe the whole purpose of a PDF is to save a considerable amount of ink by not being printed. 

     

    A PDF is, by definition, a digitally printed document—no ink is involved at all.

     

    If your organization sends all of its documents via email, texts, etc., and does not print them (unless absolutely necessary), a significant amount of ink will not be used. 

     

    I'm not being flippant here, it's part of what the PDF was designed to do.

    I agree with you and also appreciate that purpose of PDC... am talking here about the pdf doc that needed a print out... in our organisation pdf generated claims are to be taken and submit for account department... my  question is Ink consume by the PDF doc same size of word doc is equally or varies... if it is same we will introduce GARAMOND font for generating claims so that consumption of ink will be reduce by 24% ... which saves us economicaly in a long run
