How to Make a File Unprintable on Paper

 

Ok guys. This one is for those earth savers who want to save trees. The biggest cause of felling trees is for making papers. So here is a file format which makes the file unprintable. The format can be opened in any PDF reader but the print option will be disabled.

Printing disabled

Every day, entire forests are cut down to make paper. Paper that’s senselessly used to print out documents all over the world: websites, emails, even entire books, in spite of the fact that it's easy to avoid printing by saving the document as a PDF. But even PDFs can sometimes also be printed out. So to stop unnecessary printing and encourage a new awareness about the use of paper, we’ve developed a new, green file format: WWF. A format that can’t be printed out. A simple idea that saves trees. Join in. Decide for yourself which of your documents don’t need printing - and save them as WWF.
SAVE AS WWF, SAVE A TREE

Think before you print

WWF has long worked with companies and consumers to promote responsible paper use and the option to "Save as WWF" compliments and reinforces other well-established campaigns - most notably the "Think Before You Print" initiative. Overall, WWF advocates reducing excessive paper consumption, maximising paper recycling, using Forest Stewardship Council (FSC) labelled papers and choosing papers with the lowest water and climate impact.
