Letter for letter (9)

I believe the answer is:

literatim

'letter for letter' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for literatim that I've seen before include "one letter at a time" , "showing no change of character" .)

I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald.
