Name of contribution: savetrees Version number: 2.0 Author's name: Scott Pakin Location on CTAN: /macros/latex/contrib/savetrees Summary description: Pack as much text as possible onto each page of a LaTeX document License type: lppl
Announcement text:
The goal of the savetrees package is to pack as much text as possible onto each page of a LaTeX document. Admittedly, this makes the document far less attractive. Nevertheless, savetrees is a simple way to save paper when printing draft copies of a document. It can also be useful when trying to meet a tight page-length requirement for a conference or journal submission.
This new release, version 2.0, includes major -- and non-backwards-compatible -- changes to savetrees. Package options, all of which have been renamed from the previous version, now let each of savetrees's space-saving techniques be enabled or disabled individually or en masse. Two new space-saving techniques are incorporated into savetrees: reducing inter-character spacing and reducing inter-word spacing. savetrees.bib can now work independently of savetrees.sty. The seldom-used makethin script has been removed. The documentation has been improved and now includes text samples of some of savetrees's space-saving techniques.
