=====Typesetting your academic CV in {{latex}}=====
<<==Latest update==
''Feb 15, 2008'' v.0.2: Adding ##tex-text## mapping and fixing wrongly rendered double quotes.
<<::c::
{{image class="right_floated" src="../img/cvtex/einstein_cv.png" alt="[Example of XeTeX-typeset cv]" title="Example of XeTeX-typeset cv"}}There are several dedicated packages to typeset a curriculum vitę or a resume in {{latex}}, such as [[http://www.ctan.org/tex-archive/help/Catalogue/entries/europecv.html europecv]] or [[http://www.ctan.org/tex-archive/help/Catalogue/entries/ecv.html ecv]]. For some reason I've always found these solutions not flexible enough to suit my needs. This is why I opted for a standard (##article##) class as a basis for my CV.
Some {{tex}} distributions such as [[tools XeTeX]] allow you not only to benefit of the advanced typesetting features available in {{latex}}, but also to use in your documents expert fonts such as ""Hoefler Text"", ""Adobe Garamond Pro"" and to edit {{tex}} sources in your native (Western or non-Western) writing system.
The following are custom templates I use to typeset an academic curriculum vitę in [[latex XeTeX]]. You are free to download them and modify them to typeset your own curriculum.
For [[http://nitens.org/cv/cv.pdf my CV]] I currently use a template compiled in [[tools XeTeX]] with ""ITC Officina Serif"" as main typeface and ""ITC Officina Sans"" for headings.

::c::=====Getting expert fonts=====
""XeTeX"" gives the [[latex best results]] with expert fonts such as those based on [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/OpenType OpenType technology]]. Most of them can be purchased from digital foundries, but Mac OS comes bundled with a number of excellent fonts with expert features (e.g. ""Hoefler Text, Optima, Skia, Apple Chancery, Zapfino""). More free ""OpenType"" fonts are available on the net. Check out for example the [[http://scripts.sil.org/cms/scripts/page.php?site_id=nrsi&item_id=Gentium Gentium]], [[http://scripts.sil.org/CharisSILfont Charis SIL]] and [[http://scripts.sil.org/cms/scripts/page.php?site_id=nrsi&item_id=DoulosSILfont Doulos SIL]] fonts from [[http://scripts.sil.org/cms/scripts/page.php?site_id=nrsi&cat_id=FontDownloads SIL]], [[http://scholarsfonts.net/cardofnt.html Cardo]] by David J. Perry, the free fonts designed by [[http://www.josbuivenga.demon.nl/ Jos Buivenga]] (the creator of ""Fontin""), or this amazing [[http://www.alvit.de/blog/article/20-best-license-free-official-fonts collection]] of professional quality fonts selected by Vitaly Friedman.
