Text Formatting ⇒ remove page numbers from header

[chmst1999]

I am trying to write a letter with consistent letterhead on every page. I believe I have a working document now (thanks to help from a prior post). However, now the header has the page numbers in the top-left corner. I don't want page numbers. Is there a way to have everything work the way it is but omit the page numbers in the header?

UPDATE: I fixed it with the line below included after the start of the document (in %%%%%)
\pagenumbering{gobble} % stops page numbering throughout document

Now the document and header work as I want without the page numbering!

Code: Select all

\documentclass[12pt,headsepline]{letter} % Uses 10pt
\usepackage[document]{ragged2e}
\usepackage{makecell}
\usepackage{graphicx}
\usepackage{tabularx}
\usepackage{geometry}
 
\geometry{
letterpaper,% <------- corrected
 includehead, includefoot,
total={170mm,257mm},
headheight=5mm,
left=20mm,
head=58.99994pt,%<------ added
}
\usepackage{hyperref}
\hypersetup{
colorlinks=true,
linkcolor=blue,
filecolor=magenta,
urlcolor=blue}
 
%Header
\usepackage{blindtext}
\usepackage{marvosym}
\usepackage{scrlayer-scrpage}
\newcommand*{\email}[1]{\href{mailto:#1}{\nolinkurl{#1}}}
%\ihead*{}
\chead{
\begin{tabularx}{\textwidth}{ccc}
&\textsc{\large\bf First A. Last}& \\
&\textsc{P.O. BOX 999, Square, ZZ 11223}& \\ 
\textsc{\Mobilefone \hspace{1mm} (555) 555-5555} & \textsc{\Letter \hspace{1mm} \email{anyone@anywhere.k12.mt.us}} & \ComputerMouse \hspace{1mm} \href{http://goo.gl/AAAA}{http://goo.gl/AAAA}
%\hline
\end{tabularx}%
}
 
\begin{document}
 
\signature{First And Last} % name for signature 
\longindentation=0pt % needed to get closing flush left
\let\raggedleft\raggedright % needed to get date flush left

%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
 \pagenumbering{gobble}   % stops page numbering throughout document
%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%

\begin{letter}{Mr. Whom Ever\\Superintendent\\P.O. Box 8888\\Smallville, YY 76543}
\opening{Dear Mr. Ever:}\thispagestyle{scrheadings}

Nice that you found it!

Switching off the numbering style (to none) is one way. Another way would be modifying the header entries, with the scrlayer-scrpage tools. For example, \ohead{} woud do it.

I prefer scrlttr2 over the letter class, btw.
