Hi, g-brief2 currently does not support multiple inclusions. This would be helpful for bulk letters and is trivial to fix. Reproducing the issue: > $ cat simple.tex > \documentclass[ngerman]{g-brief2} > \Gruss {}{1cm} % this can't be left out due to a potential another bug > \begin{document} > > \begin{g-brief} > page one > \end{g-brief} > > %\newpage > %\begin{g-brief} > %page two > %\end{g-brief} > > \end{document} > $ pdflatex simple.tex; echo $? > ... > 0 > $ sed -i 's/^%//' simple.tex > $ cat simple.tex > \documentclass[ngerman]{g-brief2} > \Gruss {}{1cm} % this can't be left out due to a potential another bug > \begin{document} > > \begin{g-brief} > page one > \end{g-brief} > > \newpage > \begin{g-brief} > page two > \end{g-brief} > > \end{document} > $ pdflatex simple.tex; echo $? > ... > > !
