Brass Letter

What happens when your data replaces the sample

What Brass Letter does when the data is longer, shorter or emptier than the sample:

Fixed page furnitureNever grows, never moves

letterhead strip at the top of every page; footer rule with firm, reference and folio

Repeats per recordOne block per row of your data

workstream items; stage rows in the fee table; the three conditions

Grows with your dataAbsorbs long values without breaking

the thesis paragraph; what-we-heard prose; every workstream description; the closing paragraph

Pinned to every pageHolds position across page breaks

letterhead strip at page top; footer rule at page bottom

Order on the pageWhat sits after what

the addressee block follows the letterhead, the subject line follows it, then salutation, thesis and each lettered part in one flowing column; the sign-off follows the closing paragraph; the acceptance panel is last and may start a new page

Page breaksWhat may split, what must not

the letter body may split anywhere between paragraphs; the fee table, the sign-off block and the acceptance panel must not split

Last pageHow the document ends

the sign-off and acceptance panel may occupy the final page alone; the letterhead strip and footer rule carry it

Palette and type
