%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% Signature line %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
%
% Set your signature line below.
% You can add a signature image in a PDF file using the below code; this requires a file called "signature_block.pdf" to be uploaded to the template in Overleaf. The vertical spacing (\vspace) and the scaling will have to be adjusted to get things to look correct for your particular signature image.
%Alternately, comment out the following lines in favor of the one labeled
%"[[Alternate]]" if you want to sign a paper copy of the letter.
\signature{
\vspace{-12mm}\includegraphics[scale=0.40]{signature_block.pdf}\\\vspace{-2mm}
\name}
%\signature{\name} % [[Alternate]]
% The following block sets up the address on the right-hand side of the header. These lines just compile the information you set up into the LaTex letter variable "address" for later use.
\address{}

%%%%%% The "opening" is just the method of address you would like to use at the start of the letter.
%
\opening{Dear Professor XXXXX,}
%%%%%%%%%% Body of letter %%%%%%%%%%%%%%
% The "\lipsum[1-10]" command just fills the letter with 10 paragraphs of Latin for the purposes of filler. Unless you really want to send filler Latin to someone, you will replace this command with actual text. Do that here:
%
\lipsum[1-10]
%%%%%%% "closing" sets the sign-off line.
\closing{Sincerely,}
% Comment out/in the lines below as necessary.
%\encl{If an enclosure is provided, let them know what it is.}
%\ps{A postscript if that is a thing you do.}
%\cc{Someone Who Cares (and is copied).}
