I guess it's more non-native-English-speaking or mental deficiency.
A verbatim copy contains exactly the words of the original. A copy
in which letters have been replaced by other letters, or by codes,
is not a verbatim copy. A copy in which the exact words have been
printed on a T-shirt or painted on a wall is a verbatim copy.
