Adding image to every page of a letter created with scrlttr2

Question

I created a letter using scrlttr2 package from KOMA-Script. I'd like to add an image at the bottom of each of its pages. Here is what I have for this purpose:

\AddToShipoutPictureBG{%
    \AtPageLowerLeft{
         \hspace*{1.5in}\includegraphics{Logo_unten.eps}
    }
}

which works, but if I print the result, the half of the image will be cut off. So, how can I elevate the image something like 1 cm?

Answer 1

Because you give us not an compilable example of your letter but only a code snippet I have to guess what you are doing :-(

Please next question add an complete, short and compilable example that we have not to guess what you are doing ...

Because you added not your image Logo_unten.eps I used instead image example-image from package mwe. Please see that the size of this image may differ to yours so I had to add the option width=2cm to avoid overlapping text of the letter ...

To simply move the image 1 cm higher you can use command \raisebox ...

Please see the following compiling code

\documentclass[%
  paper=a4, 
  backaddress=off,
  foldmarks=false,
  parskip=half,
  addrfield=false,
]{scrlttr2}

\usepackage[english]{babel} % <=========================================

\let\raggedsignature\raggedright

\setkomavar{fromname}{john doe}
\setkomavar{fromaddress}{street number\\ plz place}
\setkomavar{fromphone}{+43 1234 567890}
\setkomavar{fromemail}{[email protected]}
\setkomavar{place}{place}
%\setkomavar{signature}{john doe\\trainer}

\renewcaptionname{english}\emailname{\Letter}% orig: \Email <===========
\renewcaptionname{english}\phonename{\Mobilefone}% orig: \Telefon <=====

\usepackage{blindtext}% <============================= to get dummy text
\usepackage{showframe}% <============ to visualize text area and margins
\usepackage{graphicx}
\usepackage{eso-pic}
\AddToShipoutPictureBG{%
    \AtPageLowerLeft{%
      \raisebox{1cm}{% <========================= shift image 1cm higher
         \hspace*{1.5in}\includegraphics[width=2cm]{example-image}
      }
    }
}


\begin{document}
\begin{letter}{Company\\Address\\City}

\setkomavar{subject}{Position Title}
\opening{Dear Recruiter,}
Content goes here.

\Blindtext

\closing{Sincerely yours,}

\end{letter}
\end{document}

Answer 2

You can load package scrlayer-scrpage which is part of the KOMA-Script bundle. Then you can declare a new layer for the image and add this layer to every pagestyle (including empty):

\usepackage{scrlayer-scrpage}
\DeclareNewLayer[
  background,
  align=bl,
  hoffset=1.5in,
  voffset=\paperheight,
  addvoffset=-.3in,% <- adjust this value to your needs
  mode=picture,
  contents=\putLL{\includegraphics[width=2cm]{example-image}}
]{letterimage}
\AddLayersToPageStyle{@everystyle@}{letterimage}

Example:

\documentclass{scrlttr2}
\setkomavar{fromname}{Name}
\setkomavar{fromaddress}{Address}

\usepackage{lipsum}% <- only for dummy text
\usepackage{graphicx}

\usepackage{scrlayer-scrpage}
\DeclareNewLayer[
  background,
  align=bl,
  hoffset=1.5in,
  voffset=\paperheight,
  addvoffset=-.3in,% <- adjust this value to your needs
  mode=picture,
  contents=\putLL{\includegraphics[width=2cm]{example-image}}
]{letterimage}
\AddLayersToPageStyle{@everystyle@}{letterimage}

\begin{document}
\begin{letter}{Recipient\\Address}
\opening{Hallo,}
\lipsum[1-10]
\closing{Best regards}
\end{letter}
\end{document}
