% author: bil kleb <w.l.kleb@larc.nasa.gov>
% date: 14 aug 1999
% version: 0.1
% license: lppl
% ymmv, but here's what worked for me:
% to compile:
% latex pcardsmp
% convert to postscript (50 addresses):
% dvips -t landscape '-l=1' -c 50 -o message.ps pcardsmp
% dvips -t landscape '-p=51' -o addresses.ps pcardsmp
% to preview (dvi preview typically not correct due to rotations):
% ghostview pcardsmp.ps
% to print: (insert 3.5'' towards infeed roller)
% lpr message.ps (stamp down and nearest the infeed)
% lpr addresses.ps (stamp up, furthest from infeed)
\documentclass[11pt]{postcards}
% database containing addresses of the form:
%
% name
% street\\town, etc.
% opening
% [blank line]
\addressfile{datasmp.txt}
% main body of text:
\mailingtext{% note: opening is one of the address datafields
The main message text goes here.
\closing{Respectfully,}}
% from-address and signature line:
\address{Tree Killers, Inc.\\
5 Bulldozer Lane\\
Slash and Burn, RT 99930}
\signature{Marvin the Robot}
