Regarding CV compilation of course Latest Ubuntu Version

Post by templateuser »

I have been using LaTex for quite some time now.

Never delved into the XeTex/XeLaTex...

However, whatever I do, download the tex live packages (all), got the MS fonts agreeing to their license...
Whatever I do I continue to get errors on the missing Helvetica Neue font

I also see an output message stating "Please (re)run Biber on the file(biblatex) cv_10(biblatex) and rerun latex after..

Can you offer any insight here? Maybe an indication of where the font file goes, if anything else would need to change in any configuration, and then the commands you used to generate your CV.

Primarily, I want to just get this building and modify it to suit my needs, but if it is not building at all (Only the pink heart i showing up), it is not much use.


Thanks

Ended up having to go with Arial, which kind of defeats the purpose of XeTex...

Hi,

Regarding the biber error first, all this is saying is that you need to use biber to compile the bibliography. Navigate to the template directory in terminal and compile the bibliography with "biber cv_10".

The font names in friggeri-cv.cls need to match exactly with what you have installed on your system. If you downloaded Helvetica Neue fonts from somewhere and installed them correctly, go into the font manager on your operating system and find their exact name. Change the template to this name and it should run. Sometimes versions of this font might be called Helvetica Neue LT and you might not have realized you need that LT on the end of XeLaTeX won't recognize it.
