Not sure anybody saw this the first time, so I'll try again, with some
expansion.
Unlike the others who've commented, I moved my CV from LaTeX to org-mode
and I'm happy with the results. Two things make it work well.
First, a "cv" class added to org-latex-classes:
(add-to-list '("cv"
"\\documentclass[10pt]{article}\n\\usepackage[margin=.75in]{geometry}\n%\\usepackage{palatino}\n\\usepackage{sectsty}\n\\sectionfont{\\normalsize\\selectfont\\itshape}\n\\usepackage[T1]{fontenc}\n\\usepackage{libertine}\n\\renewcommand*\\oldstylenums[1]{{\\fontfamily{fxlj}\\selectfont
#1}}"
("\\section{%s}" . "\\section*{%s}")))
Second, something like the following at the top of the org file (replace
with your particulars):
#+OPTIONS: author:nil timestamp:nil
#+TITLE:
#+DATE:
#+LaTeX_CLASS: cv
#+BEGIN_LATEX
\begin{flushleft}
\bfseries\Large Curriculum Vitae\hfill Daniel M. Griswold\normalfont
\end{flushleft}
\vspace{-12pt}%
\begin{flushright}
69 Stratton Road\\
Rochester, NY 14610\\
(585) xxx-xxxx\\
[email protected]\\
\hrulefill
\end{flushright}
#+END_LATEX
Main headings are things like:
* Education
* Specialization
* Employment
* Publications
* Awards and Honors
and the details below each of these headings are simply unordered lists
I really like the easy of editing in org-mode this gives me.
Hope this helps,
Dan
