This may be a surprise, but I use only oowriter/oocalc currently. Why? * I have many different envelopes to cater for, with and without address windows. * I sometimes need DIN letters, but sometimes just an informal note to accompany an item * Quite a bit of correspondence is invoices and quotes, with automatic calculations in them (VAT etc). Most of this can be done in tex/luatex of course, but it is a lot of effort compared to hitting a few extra times in oowriter. Now, if there was a great letter module for context .... ;-) > Before I release I first public bety version of the modul I > want to hear which interface to set the letter information do > you prefer and do you have things do want in the module. I definately would like an easy way to switch envelope formats, and automatic page 1 of ... would be nice too.
