Type the following into a file named \mbox{\emph{antiqua.sty}}: \begin{verbatim} \NeedsTeXFormat{LaTeX2e} \ProvidesPackage{antiqua} \renewcommand{\rmdefault}{uaq} \renewcommand{\sfdefault}{ugq} \endinput \end{verbatim} \noindent Now simply \textbackslash{}usepackage\{antiqua\}, and your document will be typeset in URW Antiqua! Antiqua is little known, but still an original creation by Hermann Zapf. Its sans serif counterpart that will also be loaded by antiqua.sty is called \mbox{{\sf UWR Grotesk}}. Both fonts were a commercial failure in the 1980s and were later made available under the GNU General Public License. The intention of this typeface was to be a highly legible, classical font for use in books, magazines, and newspapers. Don't confuse this underrated beauty with ``Book Antiqua'', which is Microsoft's knock-off of Zapf's Palatino typeface. (You know, the one that's also known as Palladio by URW and Pagella by the \TeX{} Gyre Project.) \end{document}
