Subject: serial letters
Date: Mon, 8 Apr 2019 15:26:09 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <7525A011-3996-4BEA-8AD2-F7AED5AD3317@fiee.net> (raw)
How would you approach serial letters, e.g. to all members of a club?
(Actually I need to send out donation receipts.)
I’d like to use the letter module, since my usual letter design is using it.
I can export the addresses to CSV, JSON, Lua tables or whatever or transfer them to a SQLite db.
Would it make more sense to read them in Lua and combine this data with a buffer, or to write a single tex file for every letter?
I know how to do the latter, but I’d like to learn a more ConTeXt-ish way.
Would it make sense to use the bibliographies module?
Greetlings, Hraban
