This is an attempt to implement a dynamically configurable version of the University of Washington (UW) letterhead. It uses fonts provided by the UW webite, and then uses XeLaTeX to use those fonts to recreate the letterhead. Requirements: To use this template, you will need XeLaTeX (if you are using the online ShareLaTeX system, change your compiler to XeLaTeX from the settings menu of your project). To compile locally you will also need the "rubber" utility. The signature file (a gray image) is GPG encrypted file using a symmetric cipher. The passphrase is "weakpassword" (without quotes). You will want to customize this. For this file, you will also need GPG installed in the system. To compile: Type "make", and if you have everything installed, you will get a letter.pdf file. You will be prompted for password by GPG - see the above section for the passphrase. "make clean" should remove all the non-essential build files. Note on XeLaTeX: A number of the normal LaTeX font packages will not work with XeLaTeX. For more information, see http://xetex.sourceforge.net/
