Paper less office is possible and it helps to save the data's and information's safely. An another important aspect of replacing paper works by computers will widely helps to reduce the time consumption. For example if we take some series calculation oriented works, if we do this work with papers it takes more time and may be chances for the manual error in the calculations but if we go with computers through internet using some software's, the time will be saved, no chances for error, mainly enough time is saved.

So in the offices where the possibilities for this replacement is possible, it far better to go with computers and internet's than the papers, Save time, Save Electricity, Save trees, Save Environment.

We can see the processing like searching will be fast in computerized offices than in an offices based on papers etc., it will be possible to make every office as paperless office. It will be a little difficult to organize but gradually the offices can be made computerized, and reduction in use of paper will save our environment up to some extent.

In the era of global warming we have to use our resources properly. Hence the need for minimum use of paper and their by saving the trees and the environment. If we organise computer storage properly it will be very much easier to retrieve document when need arise. The adage 'Think before you print' should always be remembered.

Actually, paperless office is not a reality but it is in improvement stage. We need paper in educational system, offices, etc. If office will become paper less then many people will become jobless for eg. Postman who carries and delivers the letter and other things. Many printers will become waste.

There are many threat exist in internet world hence we can't rely for transmission of secure data and the people who don't have computer or digital devices, they need data which is printed on paper.

Well, paperless office is certainly a reality. With the advancement in technology every document, every work that you do can be saved in a much better way than you can on papers, creating a more efficient system.

According to me paper less office is not a myth.We can send communication through mails.We can store the data on storage devices.This can be possible in a non-IT company also.Just they need a little training and small technical instruments.It will be surely a drastic as well as cost effective change.But once it is configured, it will be a life time thing.As well as it will be a Go Green attitude.There will be lesser tree cuts and more oxygen in the air and less global warming.

We can't imagine a office without paper. Yes we can reduce the papers by the use of computers by keeping soft copies of some documents and records but still there is importance of hard copies instead of soft copies in some areas where Approved Authority and Issued Authority signature is must required. So in this discussion forum we can say paper work in office can be reduced bot can't be fully avoided.

Yes Paper less office cannot be the reality as how advance we become we would require parer some where some time.
Be it a certification, legal documents or some books.

we can surely reduce the use of paper but cannot curb it.

Paperless office is like a house without any persons existence therein.The progress of development of computers and other technologies has be so rapid that paperless office is almost becoming a reality.A few years ago competitive exam applications were sent through post.But now we can apply through internet. In some countries classroom study has turned into doing classes from home for example in australia.Although huge development in technologies need of little bit of paperwork is must.For example while taking any competitive exam admit cards should be carried with for getting admitted to exam hall.Likewise there are many other places were paper work is must.Finally paperless office is not a tortal reality but partially it is real.
