Title: Sample Letterhead and Envelope Style for MultiMarkdown

Requirements

  • MultiMarkdown 2.0.b5 or later, specifically:

    • custom-letterhead.xslt
    • letterhead.xslt
    • custom-envelope.xslt
    • envelope.xslt
  • install the following in ~/Library/texmf/tex/latex:

    • mmd-letterhead folder
    • fletcherpenney folder
  • You may need to run mktexlsr within your texmf folder to update the database.

The idea is that you would then modify the custom-letterhead.xslt file to use your own LaTeX style file and signature, rather than mine.

signature.pdf is simply a pdf containing a scanned signature, converted to vector format. See Digitize for more information on this.

Using this Setup

Insert the appropriate metadata for Author, etc, and select the custom-letterhead XSLT file. Convert to LaTeX (or in my case, XeLaTeX due to the customized fonts), and process using pdflatex or xelatex. Examine the sample.txt file for more information.

You can then change to the custom-envelope XSLT and repeat in order to generate the envelope. I suppose if you did this a lot, you might even create a macro to process both stylesheets for you automatically.
