in the letter vs on the letter

Both phrases 'in the letter' and 'on the letter' are correct, but they are used in different contexts. 'In the letter' is used when referring to something that is written or contained within the letter itself. 'On the letter' is used when referring to something that is physically placed on top of the letter, such as a pen.
