Below this is the original README for the template I'm using. While I'm at it, I'll throw in a few things you probably will have to install before using it

• This template uses XeLaTeX, not the standard LaTeX. So sudo apt-get install texlive-xetex
• Besides, XeLaTeX seems to use biber, not BibTeX. So sudo apt-get install biber
• Default font has been changed to Goudy BookLetter 1911. You'll have to install it (ttf-goudybookletter package). I took out XITS Math but the fallback font was not instaled either, so you'll have to install it.
• You will also have to install texlive-fonts-extra, texlive-science and texlive-science-doc

Sounds like hard work for a resumé, right? Well, you will have to do it only once and then you can use all the time you want. I haven't managed to make it work for older versions of Ubuntu, though.

Tools and scripts developed to maintain this resumè are summarized in these two articles:

• How to totally over-engineer your CV
• Part deux of the same article.

xelatex cv.tex
biber cv
xelatex cv.tex

That's it. This is conveniently encapsulated in the Makefile, so make will do the trick.

As found in the template

Latest version of my CV, typeset in Helvetica and using colors inspired by Monokai (there is an print option which renders in black and white, and reverts the header to dark on light, if printing on paper is needed).

Uses TikZ for the header, XeTeX and fontspec to use Helvetica Neue, biblatex to print my publications and textpos for the aside.
