How to avoid pagenumering with text in scrlttr2

Question

Have a Letter in scrlttr2. I cannot avoid/exclude the text before the page number 'Seite' (see print-screen). The official documentation recommends to add \pagenumbering{arabic}. But for my document, it has no effect.

%---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\documentclass%%
%---------------------------------------------------------------------------
  [fontsize=12pt,%%          Schriftgroesse
%---------------------------------------------------------------------------
% Satzspiegel
   paper=a4,%%               Papierformat
   enlargefirstpage=on,%%    Erste Seite anders
   pagenumber=footcenter,%%   Seitenzahl oben mittig
%---------------------------------------------------------------------------
% Layout
   headsepline=on,%%         Linie unter der Seitenzahl
   parskip=half,%%           Abstand zwischen Absaetzen
%---------------------------------------------------------------------------
% Formatierung
   draft=on%%                Entwurfsmodus
]{scrlttr2}
%---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\usepackage{german}
\usepackage[T1]{fontenc}
\usepackage[utf8]{inputenc}

%---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\begin{document}
%---------------------------------------------------------------------------
% Briefstil und Position des Briefkopfs
\LoadLetterOption{DIN} %% oder: DINmtext, SN, SNleft, KOMAold.
\makeatletter
\pagenumbering{arabic}

%---------------------------------------------------------------------------
% Seitenstil
\pagestyle{plain}%% keine Header in der Kopfzeile
%---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\begin{letter}{Herr\\
                Mustermann\\
               Straße 1\\
               12345 Stadt}
%---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\setkomavar{subject}{Beispielschreiben}
%---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\opening{Liebe Herr Mustermann,}

here is some Text.

\pagebreak

here is some Text.
%---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\end{letter}
%---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\end{document}
%---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Answer 1

Use

\renewcommand{\pagemark}{{\usekomafont{pagenumber}{\thepage}}}

in your preamble. This removes \pagename\ (note the space) from the page numbering scheme.

\documentclass{scrlttr2}
\usepackage[german]{babel}
\usepackage{lipsum}
% Remove '\pagename\ ' from \pagemark
\renewcommand{\pagemark}{{\usekomafont{pagenumber}{\thepage}}}
\begin{document}

\lipsum[1-10]

\end{document}
