-This file describes setting up newlfm.cls, the class file which contains the
-information about the new letter, fax and memo class newlfm. newlfm creates
-two additional .sty files, addrset.sty and setdim.sty. These support the
-processing performed by newlfm.
-
-newlfm uses a number of external .sty files to perform various functions.
-Please get the current version of these .sty files from better CTAN
-locations everywhere, install them as requested and update your configuration as
-necessary.
-
-These files are as follows:
-
-.sty File CTAN Location Retrieve?
-mdwlist macros/latex/contrib/supported/mdwtools Entire subdirectory
-fancyhdr macros/latex/contrib/supported/fancyhdr Entire subdirectory
-envlab macros/latex/contrib/supported/envlab Entire subdirectory
-graphics dviware/ln03/rmcs Specific file
-
-Setup procedure:
-
-1) Use a temporary working subdirectory. Unpack the newlfm archive file by
-using an appropriate tool, if you have an archive file. These tools are
-widely available. If you do not have them, please check CTAN. Otherwise
-just copy the files from the newlfm archive location in CTAN.
-
-2) Start up a OS command frame (MS-DOS command prompt, unix console). The OS
-command frame must be able to access some TeX version, and that is your
-responsibility. The setup procedure here requires access to TeX and more
-specifically to LaTeX.
-
-3) The setup utility assumes that you are running dvips as your printer
-driver. If not, you must change make_win.bat or make_unix.
-
-4) make .cls and .sty files:
-
-This acts to setup the program, by running the various components in the
-correct order.
-
-a) Win family: type
-
-make_win
-
-To check on commands:
-
-type make_win.bat
-
-b) unix/linux family: type
-
-make_unix
-
-To check on commands:
-
-more make_unix
-
-5) After running the make utility, print copies of the demonstration letters test1
-- test7. Print these letters and examine them. Here is a brief description:
-
-(a) test1 is a standard letter, with a little palm tree in the left header
-and a motto in Large bf text in the footer. A signature is printed in the signature
-block. It has a FAX cover page.
-
-(b) test2 is a standard memo, with a large palm tree at an odd angle in the
-top margin, centered. It is written in pig latin, or ig-pay atin-lay. This
-is a dialect of American English popular among 8 year olds.
-
-(c) test3 is a full memo, with a smaller memo space (144pt margins on either
-side). It has all address information in both the "from" and "to" sections
-of the memo.
-
-(d) test4 is a business letter with a header file containing a small palm
-tree and a firm identification section in the left margin.
-
-(e) test5 is a business letter with a header file containing a small palm
-tree and a firm identification section in the left margin. It also has a
-table, built in the standard table fashion, included.
-
-(f) test6 is a form letter, which prints letters to two different persons,
-including a fax header page for each.
-
-(g) test7 is a form letter file, which prints letters to two different persons,
-including a fax header page for each. In addition, it changes the order of
-the date and from addresses, and fiddles with the spacing.
-
-(h) test8 is a form letter file, which prints letters to three different
-persons from a list command multletter, including a fax header page for
-each. In addition, it changes the order of the date and from addresses, and
-fiddles with the spacing. This file also illustrates the use of the stored
-letter dimensional information, stored in the letters database letrinfo.tex.
-
-(i) test9 is a form letter file, which prints letters to three different
-persons from a list command multletter, including a fax header page for
-each. In addition, it changes the order of the date and from addresses, and
-fiddles with the spacing. This file also illustrates the use of the stored
-letter dimensional information, stored in the letters database letrinfo.tex.
-
-(j) test10 is a letter showing inclusion of nameto and namefr options
-directly rather than through the letrinfo file. It prints them in cello-window form.
-
-(k) test11 is a press release.
-
-6) newlfm.zip includes all files necessary to perform the demos.
-(a) After executing the setup utility, all files in these packages should
-be placed on your LaTeX path. You may wish to place them in your "local
-site" tree, which is the LaTeX storage location for local files. Ensure
-that the local LaTeX path is executed or searched after the default LaTeX
-path.
-
-(b) Place all files newlfm.* on the "local site" tree, in the location for
-LaTeX files. In addition, letrinfo.tex and extracd.tex are both placed on
-the "local site" tree. They should probably for simplicity be placed at the
-same location as is newlfm.cls.
-
-In that way, when you replace or upgrade, information for the use of newlfm
-(in particular, your letrinfo.tex file) will not be deleted inadvertantly.
-
-7) newlfm.dvi (and probably newlfm.ps) are produced by the setup utility.
-This is a result of the docstrip program's extraction from newlfm.dtx of the
-instructions for the newlfm.dtx class. Please print this and check it for
-simple information about the class.
-
-8) Bugs and problems may be reported to

-
-If you wish me to examine anything, please send a gzipped tar file
-containing all sources (this includes letrinfo.tex and extracd.tex). I will
-try to run your example. NOTE: First step of debugging is to ensure that
-newlfm.cls is the same as mine; I don't look at your version of my class
-file. Please be sure that you have read the documentation first, however.

-newlfm uses internally defined macros to set up fax header pages, memo
-header blocks and press releases. To customize these for yourself:
-
-1) Change sfaxpage.tex to faxpage.tex for the fax page and modify it as needed; or
-2) Change smemosec.tex to memosec.tex for the memo block and modify it as needed;
-3) Change sprsrls.tex to prsrls.tex for the press release and modify it as needed.
-
-Modification of the files is in the hands of the user. Your mileage may
-vary. As developer and supporter of newlfm, I specifically exclude support
-for user modifications, but will consider a consulting arrangement at the
-user's discretion.
