Abstract
A new system has been invented that can obfuscate the stylometry of a document. This may be used to anonymize a document and make it resistant to forensic stylometry analysis, or to mimic the style of an existing set of documents, for example. A system may compare indicators of distinctive stylometry in a document with corresponding indicators of distinctive stylometry in a stylometric reference, and provide one or more alterations to the document that alter the indicators of distinctive stylometry compared to the stylometric reference, according to one illustrative embodiment.
