// The CD manual of the KFU [1] requires the contact information of the sender to be placed in the footer
// except for the first page, where it is placed above the date. This is not naturally doable in Typst.
// On way is to provide the content of the other pages separately with the `body` option, as follows:
//
// [1] https://static.uni-graz.at/fileadmin/presse/Sonstiges/Corporate_Design_Manual_Uni_Graz_2023.pdf
//
// #letter( /* your options here */
//   date: datetime.today().display("[day].[month].[year]"),
// [
//   This is the content of the first page, you have to make sure it does not overflows to the second page.
// ],
// body: [
//   This is the content of the following pages. It will always start with a page break.
//
//   #lorem(200)
//
//   #lorem(200)
// ])
