[Tex/LaTex] Package sclrttr2: How to use the fromlogo-variable? How to get a footer on the 2nd page

graphicsheader-footerhorizontal alignmentkoma-scriptpositioning

I am using scrlttr2 for a formal letter template. I am facing 3 problems:

(1) Logo in the header of the 1st page

I want a header logo on the first page in the top right corner above the header line, as shown on the following image:
This is how it should look like.

This is the way it looks now (the wrong way):
This is how it looks now.

(2) Logo in the footer of ALL pages

  • I want the same logo in the footer as well and on the first and on all other pages. It has to look like that:
    This is how it should look like.

Now it looks like that (the wrong way):
enter image description here

(3) Logo in the header on all following pages

On all following pages, I want the logo to be still there, but without the contact details. It has to look like that:
enter image description here

Now it's just empty.

That's the code I used now:

I was researching for several hours but without any success. These were the most useful posts I checked, unfortunately without any success: Logo in Briefkopf platzieren (place logo in header), Logo in a LaTeX header, Koma-Script letter class, Header and Footer does not show on second page (scrlttr2).

Any help is highly appreciated.

Best Answer

To solve the three problems you can do:

  1. Logo in the header of the 1st page: to get the logo above the line, followed by the adress etc. the imho best way is to define an own firsthead like this:

    \setkomavar{firsthead}{\raggedleft % <==================================
  \usekomavar{fromlogo}\\[+1cm]
  \rule{\textwidth}{0.5pt}\\
  \usekomavar{fromaddress}\\
  \usekomavar{fromphone}\\
  \usekomavar{fromfax}\\
  \usekomavar{fromemail}\\% <===========================================
}

    To activate this definition call the option firsthead=true, as class option.

  2. Logo in the footer of ALL pages: First you have to add the logo to the firstfoot like this:

    \setkomavar{firstfoot}{\footnotesize%
  \rule[5pt]{472pt}{.3pt}\\
  \begin{tabular}[t]{l@{}}% 
    \includegraphics[scale=.3]{generic-logo-company}\\[-5mm] % <==================
    \usekomavar{fromname}\\
    \usekomavar{fromaddress}\\
  \end{tabular}%
  \hfill
  \begin{tabular}[t]{l@{}}%
    \usekomavar{fromphone}\\
    \usekomavar{fromfax}\\
    \usekomavar{fromemail}\\
  \end{tabular}%
  \ifkomavarempty{frombank}{}{%
    \hfill
    \begin{tabular}[t]{l@{}}%
      \usekomavar{frombank}
    \end{tabular}%
    }%
}%

    Then you need to define the nextfoot like this:

    % nextfoot nexthead
\setkomavar{nextfoot}{\hspace{-1.1cm}\parbox[b]{472pt}{\usekomavar{firstfoot}}}% <=======================

  3. Logo in the header on all following pages: To get the line and the logo to the header you call the class option headsepline=true, and add the following code

    \pagestyle{myheadings}
\markboth{}{\protect\includegraphics[scale=.3]{generic-logo-company}}

Then you get the following complete MWE:

\documentclass[%
  fontsize=11pt,
  parskip=half,%%
% fromalign=right,% right,locationright %% <============================
  firsthead=true, % <===================================================
  fromphone=on,%%
  fromfax=on,%%
  fromrule=aftername,%%
  fromemail=on,%%  
  fromlogo=true,%%
  foldmarks=false,%%
  firstfoot=true,%%
  subject=titled,%%
  pagenumber=botright,%%
  headsepline=true, % <=================================================
