Hot to reduce the blank at the bottom

Post by templateuser »

First, thank for your nice template.

my problem is that i have only five lines in the second page, therefor i wanna put them into the first page.

i changed some in friggeri-cv.cls

first reduce the space for header. i changed height=3 instead of 4 and \vspace{1.5cm} instead of 2.5cm. but the left side did not move to make them at the same level. how should i do?

Code: Select all

\node [rectangle, fill=fillheader, anchor=north, minimum width=\paperwidth,
       minimum height=3cm] (box) at (current page.north){};
Second, how should i do to add some lines at the bottom instead of white blank at bottom.

Best wish

Hi,

To cram in more content onto a page you've already identified the parts that need to be changed so that's good!

To remove the footer whitespace find this line:
\RequirePackage[left=6.1cm,top=2cm,right=1.5cm,bottom=2.5cm,nohead,nofoot]{geometry}

and reduce the bottom= value.

To move the left bar up find this line:

\begin{textblock}{3.6}(1.5, 4.33)

and reduce the 4.33 number.

You could also look into reducing the size of the gray header at the top.

Good luck!

Cheers,
