If the U.S. government stopped using Times New Roman and Century Gothic and switched to Garamond, it could reduce its annual cost of ink from $467 million per year by more than 29%. That means it would save about $136 million per year. An additional $97 million could be saved if state and local governments made the switch too.
Do you think this is practical and a good idea or not?

There are plenty of small changes the government could make to save money. Congress and the White House aren't interested in such changes. They want big grand changes that they can show voters to help get them re-elected. Each government office would have to impliment the changes at department level. When members of Congress and the President regularly spend a fortune of tax payer money on personal family vacations, haircuts, dinners, transportation, and other personal expenses,...they won't care about the few hundred million saved by changing fonts.
If there were a sea change from new times Roman to garamond, the ntr lobby would petition the courts for a stay.
