Booklet Labels = Hard Copy

A man checks the hard copy of some medication.

 “Hard Copy” is a physical printout of an electronic document.

Paper “hard copy” is being used more than ever before. Why? Because copies of important documents are critical to our lives. We need physical copies because we don’t fully trust electronic storage. Paper is safe. Paper doesn’t use batteries. There is too much that can go wrong with digital. Everybody has had a hard drive failure, a dead cell phone, and accidentally deleted critical information. Paper is an excellent backup solution. A physical copy is always there. It doesn’t disappear if properly stored and can’t be erased. It costs very little to store it. Physical copies are still the gold standard with legal documents which implies how trusted paper copies are. Electronic storage of paperwork always comes with the worry that it may be lost due to a hard drive or backup system failure.
