Can't remember who asked this, but the person wanted to justify NOT
using Courier. I just converted a text file and it decreased from 9
pages in Courier to just barely 7 pages in Times New Roman. This might
be a consideration for tech writers who have production
responsibilities. It wouldn't take many pages/documents to really save
some space and money here. I'm sure if I delete all the double spaces
(heh, heh...couldn't resist it!), it will save another page!!
