\input letter

Post by vaalsta »

Is it possible to use \input{filename} when you want filename.tex to be treated as as different document class? Specifically, what I want is to include a letter as a page in my report.

Recommended reading 2024:

LaTeXguide.org • LaTeX-Cookbook.net • TikZ.org

NEW: TikZ book now 40% off at Amazon.com for a short time.

And: Currently, Packt sells ebooks for $4.99 each if you buy 5 of their over 1000 ebooks. If you choose only a single one, $9.99. How about combining 3 LaTeX books with Python, gnuplot, mathplotlib, Matlab, ChatGPT or other AI books? Epub and PDF. Bundle (3 books, add more for higher discount): https://packt.link/MDH5p

Compile the letter document separately to PDF and include it with pdfpages into your report. Note that this would only work when compiling directly with PDFLaTeX.

Ok thanks. I did think about doing it that way, just wondered if it was possible to include it without pre-compiling.

Cheers.

You could try the combine class. But as far as I understand, you would only be able to attach the letter to your report but not free to place it where you want. I guess the manual can tell you more.
