## Using modern-cv {#using-modern-cv}
|
|
|
|
[moderncv](https://www.ctan.org/tex-archive/macros/latex/contrib/moderncv) is a standard \\(\LaTeX\\) package that you can find in many of your
|
|
latex distributions. For I maintain for personal purposes a fork of it to
|
|
better work with my use case at <https://github.com/Titan-C/moderncv.git>
|
|
Feel free to use any or even your personal fork for your desired use case.
|
|
|
|
To configure the export for moderncv you need the addition options in your
|
|
org file.
|
|
|
|
```org
|
|
# CV theme - options include: 'casual' (default), 'classic', 'oldstyle' and 'banking'
|
|
#+CVSTYLE: banking
|
|
# CV color - options include: 'blue' (default), 'orange', 'green', 'red', 'purple', 'grey' and 'black'
|
|
#+CVCOLOR: green
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
When exporting you can call the following function to get the latex file.
|
|
|
|
```emacs-lisp
|
|
(org-export-to-file 'moderncv "moderncv.tex")
|
|
(org-latex-compile "moderncv.tex")
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
<object data="moderncv.org.pdf" type="application/pdf" width="100%" height="500px">
|
|
<p>Alternative text - include a link <a href="moderncv.org.pdf">to the PDF!</a></p>

## Using alta-cv {#using-alta-cv}
|
|
|
|
[AltaCV](https://github.com/liantze/AltaCV) is another project to generate a CV, you will need to install it
|
|
yourself. I maintain a fork too at <https://github.com/Titan-C/AltaCV.git>
|
|
because I need extra features and I encourage to use this fork on the
|
|
`sections` branch.
|
|
|
|
The style of this CV is more involved and you need some configuration in
|
|
your org file to get it to work. First define the margins, the large margin
|
|
to the right is to allow for a second column.
|
|
|
|
```org
|
|
#+LATEX_HEADER: \geometry{left=1cm,right=9cm,marginparwidth=6.8cm,marginparsep=1.2cm,top=1.25cm,bottom=1.25cm}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Content on the right column has the same structure of a org file, but you
|
|
need to enclose it in the `\marginpar{}` command as shown next.
|
|
|
|
```org
|
|
#+latex: \marginpar{
|
|
```
|
|
|
|

| EMPLOYER | Employer or organization, can also be specified |
