In America, it's standard for margins to be 1 inch on most, if not all, documents. Using 2.54 cm just makes no sense for an American writing a document meant to be circulated in America.
I wish you still hosted the .tex file. But thanks for this great tutorial. Despite the propaganda, I still use emacs (with evil bindings tho), which complicated my first LaTeX attempt a bit. I basically am in the exact same cituation as your promise: org-mode exports headings, subheadings and subsub headings with some nested lists in between, and I try to write a .tex file that formats those into a nice document. 90% of the formating came from your LaTeX series.Every other source has been more or less pain on top of unapplicable advice. Wish you had covered xcolor tho. Took me a while to get a hang on defining colors as enew command for the tittle.
Luke, you video is awesome! It really helped to build my résumé beautifully :) The only problem I'm facing is to define the format of the textbody that comes after the subsection title, like you typed in Work Flow: "vim, tmux or a titling window manager (...)". How do I change the line spacing and the distance from the margin of this text?
Can some explain me why should I spend time learning these things if I can open libreoffice and acomplish pretty much the same thing with a few clicks. Sorry do not take offensive my commentary, I just want to justify the time learning these things in my head
LaTeX is great for other things like writing papers or books. Some of its advantages is equation rendering and word spacing that uses a great algorithm to optimize the way lines look. You can also use an already made template to write a CV too. But editing a CV as he is doing here is inefficient, you are better off with LibreOffice.
Since everything in it is clear text, you can easily manipulate/grep/automate many things afterwards, and you'll see exactly how everything works, so it's more transparent than libreoffice, where many things are up to the software to deal with and may cause misalignment/bad structure
Hi Luke. Great video again. Do you have this tex file on a git repo or something like that? I'm just trying to prepare my updated resume (or cv) and I will take this one as my template base. Thx!
Hi! What should I do if I want to right align the text next to the \subsubsection? I like the look of the runin option, but I would like to see how my document looks if the text body/paragraph after the headers are nicely aligned to the right. Given your example document, the following addition almost works but inserts an ugly line break before the first \subsubsection: \titlespacing{\subsubsection} {0em} {0.25em} {\hfill}
Hey Luke, thank you so much for the 2 parts. Could you make one that adds an adress box in the style of a resume on the top left corner and also dates, like bachelors - year…
Thanks for these two videos. I learned a lot. I had to install the "titling" and "titlesec" packages manually though (I'm using Antergos), otherwise it works nicely.
Thanks! Glad it was helpful. Yeah re: packages, I would recommend just going ahead and installing texlive-most so you don't have to worry about getting individual packages.
>goes to all the trouble of learning Arch, i3, and LaTeX
>still uses inches
Are those triple parens meant to be post-ironic or serious?
Yes.
@@porlando12 seriously post ironic

I’m so glad I remembered this channel. You got me into arch-linux as a teen. Your installation tutorials and vim-tutorials were very useful.

I'm trying to use entrylist but I got an error: "! LaTeX Error: Environment entrylist undefined." and I can't find anything to troubleshoot.
really nice videos, but i recommend adding a space after the bullet point
I think the point was to show commands to make this more easy not to make your reseme it's a pretty good video
@@raynebenson9040 yeah but is just a tip
Really helpful video. But name and personal details prints in one page and all the details goes to another. What could be the problem. .?
When should you use em and when should you use inches?

mrwhitebp so people think you're a genius when you use latex ;)
Latex gives you significantly more control, and when you are used to it is actually faster than libreoffice.

Two thing, bibliography and references.
Any way to change the top margin? It is definitely bigger than what the margin command sets it to
You can check the documentation for geometry
Hi Luke. Great video again. Do you have this tex file on a git repo or something like that? I'm just trying to prepare my updated resume (or cv) and I will take this one as my template base. Thx!
Thanks! I've just now put the final .tex file in the video description. Good luck!

You are my hope to see someone learning and texting at the same time. I would like see a live someone texting Latex and not learning thank you
Hey Luke, I can not access resume.tex anymore. Is there any way that I'm able to acces it?
Nevermind, I should have looked at your GitHub beforehand. Found it.

You sound like Casually Explained.

Have you tried doing this with RMarkdown?
Thank you so much for these videos. Were very helpful.
Thank you for this.
