A question: how can you increase the letter spacing of some text in the default LaTeX font with \addfontfeature{LetterSpace=3.0} whatevertextyouwanttostretchout I already included \usepackage{fontspec}. Do I also need to include \fontspec{ComputerModern}? I'm not sure what the name of the default font is. Thanks for your help! Thanks for the great tutorial Alessandro. A question:
