Letter Format Template

This is a Quarto template to create r-rse branded letters using the letter format. It's been modified from template mcanouil/quarto-letter distributed under an MIT license.

See more details on the underlying KOMA Script letter document class

Creating a New Letter

You can use this as a template to create a letter. To do this, use the following command:

quarto use template r-rse/rrse-quarto-letter

This will install the extension and create an example qmd file and bibliography that you can use as a starting place for your article.

Installation For Existing Document

You may also use this format with an existing Quarto project or document. From the quarto project or document directory, run the following command to install this format:

quarto install extension r-rse/rrse-quarto-letter

Usage

To use the format, you can use the format name rrse-letter-pdf¹. For example:

quarto render template.qmd --to rrse-letter-pdf

or in your document yaml

format: rrse-letter-pdf

You can view a preview of the rendered template at https://mcanouil.github.io/quarto-letter/.
