Our letterhead is available as a the latex class iasletter. This is an extension to letter, you may use iasletter as you would use letter.
A letterhead template is also located at /usr/ias/localtexmf/tex/latex/ias/LaTexLetter.tex

Example using letterhead class:


help@london[1] cat test.tex
\documentclass{iasletter}
\begin{document}
\begin{letter}{Someone}
\opening{Dear, Someone}

This is to inform you that I am using the iasletter class.
\closing{Sincerely, Nobody}
\end{letter}
