  • Very good solution. Still I have a question: This works only if I have DIN letter format, which is the case if nothing is preloaded as in my case. I found out that some nations in Europe have their own standards... only part seems to be given in the KOMA documentation, table 4.19 (ctan.space-pro.be/tex-archive/macros/latex/contrib/koma-script/…).

  • It does also work with other formats. Just load your lco file after geometry and after setting the page layout resp. margins. The KOMA-Script manuals also provide information on how to change the pseudo length. So you can adapt an existing lco or implement a new one. As it seems you are reading the German manual, note, there is also a German KOMA-Script book, which has an additional appendix chapter about lco development. The KOMA-Script wiki (here the German version) also provides examples about this.

  • And there are also third-party lco files available, like ctan.org/pkg/koma-script-sfs. AFAIK there are also several DTK articles about lco files. Just have a look into the DANTE DTK archive. But I don't know, if these articles are still valid with newer versions of KOMA-Script. But if there are problems, you can ask a new question. ;-)
