Paperless Office

Kind of funny. I saw a presentation today where the presenter actually mentioned the paperless office.

Don Fluckinger comments on the paperless office in his PDFzone article, "Despite PDF, Paperless Office Remains a Mirage".

I think the .pdf capture bodes well for routing the data, but I know a lot of people that will still print out the .pdf to read, thus this simply diverts the printing cost to the end points, hence not a paperless process.

Some people get a warm fuzzy from their paper copy. Although you have to admit there are instances where if a system were down having a paper copy of something could be priceless.
