The head use predefined layouts and you can select between a left aligned, a centered or a right aligned layout. \setupletterstyle[head][alternative=right] Wolfgang

On page 99 of lettercorrespondence.pdf you write: "The default alternative a prints the firstname and surname of the author in the first line and the address in the following lines, the text is left aligned but this can be changed with the align key." What does that mean? I thought, that "alternative" was more about the location and with "alternative=left, align=middle", one could get a header on the left side, and midaligned. -- Peter

The “alternatives” are different predefined or user created layouts for the elements (like head, reference etc.) and some of the layouts restrict the options. With the alternative “a” i print only the values from the variables “fromname” and “fromaddress” while “left”, “middle” and “right” are complexer. Another feature from the last three alternatives is that the alignment is fixed and you can’t change it, when you want a different layout then create your own header. Wolfgang

So the sentence "the text is left aligned but this can be changed with the align key." should be dropped perhaps? -- Peter
