Curricula Vitae / Résumés ⇒ Modern CV and Cover Letter compiling issue

[liminarflow13]

Hey guys,

I tried to reenter the cover letter but now my Texmaker doesnt want to compile.
The problem seems to be with the commenad \makelettertitle.
I read other threads which said that TexLive2016 can cause those issues.

Even though this seems to be the problem i can't fix it.
Here a minmal example of my CV:

Code: Select all

You commented out the recipient, the person/institution who should get the letter. Not having this is a bit useless as the postman doesn't know where to send a the letter. Hence, you get an error message.

This is not caused by TeX Live at all. This is the template somehow preventing you from silly stuff.

Off topic: Did nobody tell you that special characters like umlauts and accents aren't a good idea in filenames? Just like spaces aren't?

[liminarflow13]

I commented them all out so i knew they where not the main issue.
thanks for the hint though anyway.

And on the other hand on my opinion this is not a stupid idea for example if you write an online application and you dont have an adress. As in my case.

[Johannes_B]

The cover letter was not designed for online submissions.

On the other hand, every enterprise you can write an application to has a physical address.

[liminarflow13]

Yeah sure thing. Anyway thank you!
