What font is good for ransom letters? The wordlike.sty pkg gives problems
-
Suppose you’re writing an anonymous letter. Nice looking LaTeX fonts would be a bad choice because they stand out and create quite a bit of uniqueness. I figure MS Word is probably the most popular. So I had a look at the
wordlikepackage. It’s dated 2006 and gives an error on this line:\renewcommand{\@dotsep}{1}To hack around it, I tried putting this in my preamble:
\makeatletter \newcommand{\@dotsep}{1} % hack to avoid wordlike.sty error \makeatotherThat attempt at a hack has no effect. Any ideas?
Regarding the click bait title.. I have not yet had the need for making ransom demands which should probably use a genuine MS Word. But whistle blowing should be quasi-pseudo-anonymous to some extent. I thought wordlike would suffice. Of course I’m open to other approaches. Maybe just switching to a sans serif font would do.
The last answer on this page looks interesting but does not work with pdflatex.. only XeTex. There is another non-wordlike approach on this page I might play with.
