Ecofont is a free font designed to be more eco-friendly. The font has holes in it so that less ink will be used when the font is printed. CNET reports that Ecofont claims to use 20% less ink than regular fonts. They also say it is basically "Arial with holes." The font is available for Windows, Mac OSX and Linux systems.
