Page Layout ⇒ working with geometry and fancyhdr packages

[dcernst]

I'm currently updating my CV and I am trying to mimic the CV found at

http://www.tedpavlic.com/post_resume_cv ... xample.php

This particular example modifies the margins so that the section titles will go in the left margins.

Here is a minimal example that illustrates the problem that I am having:

Code: Select all

\documentclass[11pt]{article}
\usepackage{calc}
\usepackage[breaklinks]{hyperref}

\usepackage{fancyhdr}

\reversemarginpar

\usepackage[paper=letterpaper,
            marginparwidth=1.2in, 
            marginparsep=.05in, 
            margin=1in,
            includemp]{geometry}

\setlength{\parindent}{0in}

\pagestyle{fancy}

\lhead{{\Large \textbf{Bat Man}}}

\renewcommand{\section}[2]%
        {\pagebreak[2]\vspace{1.3\baselineskip}%
         \phantomsection\addcontentsline{toc}{section}{#1}%
         \hspace{0in}%
         \marginpar{
         \raggedright \scshape #1}#2}

\begin{document}

\section{Contact Information}
Bat Cave, Gotham City

\newpage

\section{Favorite Buddies}
Robin and Bat Girl

\end{document}

What I would like to have is for the fancy header to be as wide as the total width of both columns (which is something like \textwidth+\marginparwidth+\marginparsep).

The example that I started to mimic uses the following code to accomplish what I am looking for:

Code: Select all

\newcommand{\makeheading}[1]%
        {\hspace*{-\marginparsep minus \marginparwidth}%
         \begin{minipage}[t]{\textwidth+\marginparwidth+\marginparsep}%
                {\large \bfseries #1}\\[-0.15\baselineskip]%
                 \rule{\columnwidth}{1pt}%
         \end{minipage}}

The problem with this is that it only puts the header on the first page and I'd like to put it on every page. I'm hoping that I can modify the options for fancyhr to accomplish this.

Thanks in advance for any help!

By the way, I'm welcome to suggestions that accomplish what I'm looking for that do not involve modifying the fanyhdr options. However, I'd rather not use the res document class.

The following minimal example achieves the output that I was hoping for:

Code: Select all

\documentclass{article}

\usepackage{calc}

\reversemarginpar
\usepackage[paper=letterpaper,
           marginparwidth=1.2in,     
           marginparsep=.05in,       
           hmargin={.75in,.75in},
           vmargin=1in,           
           includemp]{geometry}
\usepackage{fancyhdr}
\fancyheadoffset[LO,LE]{\marginparsep+\marginparwidth}
\fancyfootoffset[LO,LE]{\marginparsep+\marginparwidth}

\setlength{\parindent}{0in}

\pagestyle{fancy}

\lhead{{\Large \textbf{Batman}}}

\renewcommand{\section}[2]{\hspace{0in}\marginpar{\raggedright \scshape #1}#2}

\begin{document}

\section{Contact Information}
Bat Cave, Gotham City

\newpage

\section{Favorite Buddies}
Robin and Batgirl

\end{document}
