Home Office: Digital files are cheaper to keep than paper files
Want to save money? Want to save paper? I am going to tell you an easy way to do both. I know what I am talking about because I do it everyday – sometimes several times a day.
PDF files are a great way to save information in a digital form. Documents and photos alike can easily be emailed or printed in hardcopy form. The digital file can be filed into a digital folder just like your paper files are filed into paper folders. In fact I have digital copies of important papers. I name my digital folders the same as my paper folders so little searching is required if I need particular information.
Some of the most important and most used items in my home office are:
· My Computer
· My Adobe PDF writing Software
· Scanner
· Shredder
Printer paper is expensive and so is square footage in your home office. Why spend the money and waste the space on paper that you will probably never look at again. It is estimated that 80% of your files will not be used once they are filed away.
