Hi list,
I've been wondering for a while that when using org-mode to write letters, how
do you export casual a letter that doesn't have from address and to address?
Thanks in advance,
York

But have you ever needed to print out a letter without "from address" and "to address"? In my case, I just needed to print a note, sign it, and pass it to somebody on a regular basis! It doesn't make sense having to always print my home address and her address at the beginning because it's just a casual note. Thanks, York On Sat, Mar 5, 2016 at 6:22 AM, H.

When it's *not* a real letter you shouldn't use scrlttr2 as the document class! I suggest to have a look at the KOMA scrpage2 documentation, with this style you have more control of the content and can create your own *high-class* notes style.

I wanted it to be a letter in all aspects, except that it doesn't have the "from address" and "to address" in the header. More specifically, I want my letter looks like: Hi Flora, Blah blah blah! Regards, York > simply write it as a normal org document and export it to pdf or odt or > whatever you wish to send. The problem is, it seems to me that to export to pdf, LaTeX export is the only way to go. But then you would have to choose a document class. Obviously you can't use "article", nor "book". So my question may probably rephrase as: which latex document class do you use to export the letter "as is"?

Ha, this is in fact the main problem with LaTeX: it is not really a "document preparation system", it is a "scientific paper preparation system". Any other kind of document, and LaTeX needs help. This could be addressed in two ways: 1. Writing a "better" (i.e., more generic, not aimed towards articles and books) LaTeX exporter. 2. Writing a ConTeXt exporter (see http://wiki.contextgarden.net/Main_Page). I could (and would like to) do either or both, but I'd probably have to move to Mars to have longer days... > Thanks, > > York Best, -- Marcin Borkowski http://octd.wmi.amu.edu.pl/en/Marcin_Borkowski Faculty of Mathematics and Computer Science Adam Mickiewicz University ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 15+ messages in thread

So my question may probably rephrase as: which > latex document class do you use to export the letter "as is"? Ah, okay, I see. Well, you could try something along the lines of: #+begin_src org ,#+title: ,#+author: ,#+date: ,#+options: toc:nil num:nil ,* Hi Flora Blah blah blah! Regards, # leave some room for signature \vspace*{1.5cm} York #+end_src where the headline has a space after the "*". You might want to play with parindent and parskip LaTeX variables if you don't like the default. Alternatively, there may be other LaTeX styles that could give you what you want with a little customisation although probably unlikely. For instance, have a look at http://www.latextemplates.com/ and maybe create your own using the custom class example? Finally, you could export the above (without the vspace line) to text and then use another tool to create the PDF... such as a2ps and ps2pdf on linux.
