The following are custom templates I designed to typeset an academic curriculum vitæ in [[latex XeTeX]]. You are free to download them and modify them to typeset your own cv.
~-Hanging notes (read the //known issues// section below for further information on this)
===Known issues===
~-Long lists of items (e.g. 6+) with a hanging year may result in the following LaTeX error: ##Too many unprocessed floats.## To prevent this, declare ## \usepackage{placeins}## in the document header and split any long block using the ##""\FloatBarrier""## command. This should force the partial processing of floats up to this point and allow you to compile the document.
