I have a wonderfully formatted Latex CV that I made from scratch which looks perfect in TexShop (Mac)'s compiled preview version, the text is sharp to the highest zoom, etc.
Unfortunately when actually created as a PDF, the entire document takes on a hazy blurriness, completing ruining the entire purpose of using Latex for me.
I have come to realize this is likely because I'm using a non-standard font (I'm using a system font I downloaded) and using XeLatex.
1. I'm wondering if there's anyway I can use this font but maintain the same appearance of the compiled preview document - I'm rather upset it looks so great on my computer, but I can't "get" THAT document to export into some format I can show others!
2. If not... I have tried changing the preamble to change the font, but I seem unable to get it to compile. I have been able to produce a NEW document which compiles with one of the default fonts, and it looks FINE in PDF, but when I basically copy this preamble to MY (heavily customized) document, it doesn't work - I can't figure out why...
Any help would be MUCH appreciated.
Thank you!
This is my document preamble - I have included everything because I don't know if something is causing a conflict; I also cannot get it to work, so I don't have a 'working example'.
Basically I'm trying to SWITCH this to default fonts, instead of 'baskerville' which I have used here...
