This is a LaTeX version of the University of Washington "matrix" stationery or letterhead. It uses the fonts provided by the UW website (Matrix II and OpenSans) and attempts to be pica-for-pica identical to the stationery template distributed as a Microsoft Word "DOCX" file by UW Brand and Creative Services. Requirements ============= Because this document requires an OpenType and a TrueType fonts, you will need use to XeTeX—a modern TeX compiler. It is supported by https://sharelatex.com/ although it not the default. It should be installable on GNU/Linux, Windows, and MacOSX. More details are available here: https://tug.org/xetex/ A number of the normal LaTeX font packages will not work with XeLaTeX. For more information, see http://xetex.sourceforge.net/ The two required fonts Matrix-II And OpenSans are both included in this repository. There is a makefile included which allows you to run `make pdf` to build the PDF and `make clean` to clean up from a build. Running this will required: * GNU Make: https://www.gnu.org/software/make/ * latexmk: https://ctan.org/pkg/latexmk?lang=en Encrypted signatures files =========================== If you'd like, you can encrypt the signature file. There are several lines you in the Makefile you can uncomment to do this. We've included an optional encrypted copy of the fake signature file. To use it, the passphrase is "weakpassword" (without quotes). You will want to customize this. To use this, you will also need the GNU Privacy Guard (GPG) installed on your system.

Copyright and Usage ===================== This template was modeled after the Microsoft Word "Matrix" stationery template published by UW Brand and Creative Services here: https://www.washington.edu/brand/templates/stationery/ It is hopefully obvious that there are many ethical and legal restrictions on when one can and cannot (and should or shouldn't) use official university letterhead (e.g., it should only be used for official communication). If you have any questions, you should contact UW Brand and Creative Services at the contact information available at the link above.
