Letters, manifests and documents can be printed from a printer; however, this guide is about formatting handwritten text. For starters, you will need a pen and paper. With these items, you can write letters and give them to your friendly station Mailman to deliver, engage in paper snowball fights while in interrogation, and create some fancy and bureaucratic forms while in positions of authority.

Writing Surfaces
Paper is most often found in Paper Bins, located in most workplaces.
You can:
- Examine the Paper to read it from any distance
- Write on it with a Writing Tool
- Stamp it
- Fold it into a ball, plane, hat, or cigarette packet. It can be unfolded, and the writing will still be legible, allowing for things like sending insults via paper plane.
- Change the item name from 'paper' to any other name with a clipboard
- Make a booklet with multiple sheets using a stapler
- Copy it with a photocopier
- Store it in a folder
- Put it in a filing cabinet
