Abstract
"Save paper, save trees" is a hot agenda in today's world. This paper presents an ingenuous approach to achieve the motto, by proposing a software-only design, through modeling a paper notepad digitally. It describes the financial and social significance of this model underlining its implementation. The paper also briefs about the underlying hardware selected for the design implementation. The hardware utilizes ARM processor and is quite portable. Its known as Mini2440 FriendlyARM. Throughout the paper, optimization (power, memory etc.) has been primarily focused yielding to a recommendable solution.
