You can find it at > http://orgmode.org/worg/org-tutorials/koma-letter-export.html First: thanks for writing this! Second: comments. They are just quick notes and you can ignore all of it, if so desired. I don't know what the most efficient way to share comments is. For now I've just separated comments by double space and intended quotes. "Optionally download an up-to-date KOMA letter exporter" Is this something we want to encourage people to do? I think that "1. Add the path containing ox-koma-letter.el to Emacs' load path...." is so common that it need not be included. If anything it should link to another wiki page explaining how to add stuff to the load path as to not add a step that (what I'd guess) a high percentage of the readers would know. "download the KOMA letter example and you can also download the example PDF letter." Links aren't working here. "Configuration guide" Very nice. "Letter meta data can be configured in one of three ways, listed below from the most specific to the most general:" 4. through org-latex-classes (e.g. defining my-business-letter and my-love-letter). But perhaps this is considered bad practice? "Setting letter meta data in Emacs variables" This stuff is covered in the subsection just above. But that's probably OK. "Custom LCO files must be placed in a directory where LaTeX will find them. On Linux, this defaults to ~/texmf/tex/latex. On OS X, use ~/Library/texmf/tex/latex instead. These paths can be configured using the following command:" Mayhaps one could add: In TeXLive you can test whether foo.lco is recognized by TeXLive by typing =kpsewhich foo.lco=. After adding a file to the TeXLive path you may have to run =mktexlsr=. List of KOMA letter meta data, [...], List of KOMA letter options Nice tables! –Rasmus -- This is the kind of tedious nonsense up with which I will not put
