scrlttr2: How to remove the words "Telefon", "E-Mail" & "Url:" sender's address

Question

In scrlttr2 you can include your telephone number, your e-mail and an url into the sender´s address which is good.

However, the document will write "Telefon:", "E-Mail:" and "Url:" (German) in front of the number etc. - even though everyone can see that it is the phone number etc.

Therefore, I would like to delete the words. Is anyone able to do so?

Answer 1

Philip, you simply need to add an [] inside the \setkomavar{fromphone}{0177 66666666} command: \setkomavar{fromphone}[]{0177 66666666}.

Answer 2

On page 139 of the documentation of KOMA-Script (texdoc koma-script) you can read the following:

\setkomavar{name}[description]{content}
\setkomavar*{name}{description}

With the command \setkomavar you determine the content of the variable name. Using an optional argument you can at the same time change the description of the variable.

In contrast, \setkomavar* can only set the description of the variable name.

To complete this, command \setkomavar{name}[description]{content} prints description: content in your letter, asuming that the separator is :. So you have two possibilities to get what you want:

\setkomavar{fromphone}[]{0177 66666666}
%\setkomavar{fromphone}[]{telephone number}
\setkomavar{fromurl}[]{www.iglu-lecker.de}
\setkomavar{fromemail}[]{\href{mailto:[email protected]}{\texttt{[email protected]}}}

deletes in all three cases the printing of description. Or you can use

\setkomavar*{fromphone}{}
\setkomavar*{fromurl}{}
\setkomavar*{fromemail}{}

to delete the predefined description.

Another posibility could be to use symbols (option symbolicnames=true of KOMA-Script) instead of the descriptions ...
