I have a generic rec letter template which I update as needed. It's great, except that the long name of the sub-department I work for wraps in my signature block and I don't want it to. Specifically, my signature block renders like this:
My Name
My Title
The Pretty Long Name of the
Sub-Department That I Work For
My University
While I'd prefer:
My Name
My Title
The Pretty Long Name of the Sub-Department That I Work For
My University
I have tried moving the whole signature block to the left with \longindentation=15em, but it doesn't seem to have actually widened the block (just translated it).
Any help appreciated!
Below is the totality of my source:
\documentclass{letter}
\usepackage{hyperref}
\usepackage[margin=1in]{geometry}
\setlength{\parindent}{4em} % indentation of first line of paragraphs
\signature{My Name \\ My Title \\ The Pretty Long Name of the Sub-Department That I Work For \\ My University}
\address{My Name \\ My Office Address \\ My University}
\longindentation=15em % move the signature block a bit to the left so it's not starting at the center
\begin{document}
\begin{letter}{Recipient Department \\ Recipient Organization or University}
\opening{\noindent To whom it may concern:} % \noindent leaves this paragraph unindented
This is my letter which almost always consists of three paragraphs of text.
Here's the middle paragraph.
Here's the concluding paragraph.
\vspace{2em}
\closing{Sincerely,}
\end{letter}
\end{document}
