Repository files navigation

These are the source files for my CV, bibliography, and narrative. The PDF output looks beautiful, I think. But it's extremely time-consuming to update and maintain since this is the only document that use LaTeX for.

When editing, remember to escape &, #, _ etc with \

To generate the PDF, run tinytex::tlmgr_update() to update LaTeX packages (since I do this so infrequently), then in RStudio, click 'compile PDF' for bm-vita-master.tex

CV

Start with editing bm-vita-master.tex to format the top matter. Then edit these to update actual content:

bm-vita-sub-employment.tex bm-vita-sub-grants.tex bm-vita-sub-awards.tex bm-vita-sub-talks.tex bm-vita-sub-service.tex

Bibliography

Edit /bibliography/bm-biblio-master.tex

Narrative

Edit /narrative/bm-narrative-master.tex

Dependencies

There are a large amount of packages, etc. required to make the PDF. The TeX engine needed is XeLaTex.

Some of the LaTeX packages include:

  • memoir
  • microtype
  • fontawesome
  • url
  • setspace
  • gitinfo
  • fancyhdr
  • color
  • xunicode
  • fontspec
  • enumitem
  • xeCJK

If these are missing, we can

library(tinytex)
tlmgr_search('/times.sty')   # search for times.sty
tlmgr_install('psnfss')      # install the psnfss package
tlmgr_install('memoir')     # install  memoir.cls
tlmgr_install('soul')     # install  soul.sty
tlmgr_install('textcase') 
tlmgr_install('biblatex-chicago') 
tlmgr_install('xstring') 
tlmgr_install('fontawesome') 
tlmgr_install('gitinfo') 
tlmgr_install('libertine')
tlmgr_install('fontspec')
tlmgr_install('xecjk')
tlmgr_install('ctex')
tlmgr_update() 

Fonts:

And a bunch of files from Kieran Healy's CV http://kjhealy.github.com/kjh-vita, from which this is adapted, including these from https://github.com/kjhealy/latex-custom-kjh:

  • org-preamble-xelatex.sty
  • memoir-article-styles.sty
