Ah, I see. That's an interesting feature. Thanks!

You can write the setting for the paper size in a new file with
the namer user.nls and put it somewhere in your TeX directory
where ConTeXt could find it. It's similiar to cont-usr.tex because
my module loads for every letter you write.

Wow, that was incredibly fast. Thank you very much! The new version  
works as I expected.

Yes, I have to use US lettersize paper (8.5 inches x 11 inches) for  
the physical paper on which my letters are printed. For long letters,  
I use a narrower textarea, but I don't think that's what you're  
asking me.

Thanks again.

Michael

I uploaded a new version, if you have no time update for
the moment use \crlf as replacement.

Do you need lettersize for all your letters?

letter module: no linebreak in signature

[Michael Green]

Using Wolfgang Schuster's wonderful letter module, I enter my  
signature with my name and title like so:

\setupletter[signature={Michael Green \\ Assistant Professor of  
Philosophy}]

This used to produce a line break between "Green" and "Assistant" so  
the output would look like this:

Michael Green
Assistant Professor of Philosophy

But it no longer does. Now it comes out like this:

Michael Green  Assistant Professor of Philosophy

Is there a preferred way to accomplish the effect I want?

Thanks!

Michael
