Enabling hyphenation and removing periods at the end of entr

Post by templateuser »

Awesome template!
There are two things, however, I’d like to tweak:

1) How can I (re)enable hyphenation in the letter?
2) How can I get rid of the “.” at the end of a CV entry?

I tried to find out both by myself but it’s beyond my understanding of latex so I’d appreciate some help…

Hi,

1) By hyphenation I assume you mean justification? If so, go into moderncvstyleclassic.sty and comment out line 290: \raggedright%
2) To get rid of the period at the end of a cv entry go into moderncvstyleclassic.sty and change line 208 from .\strut% to \strut%

Cheers,

I forgot to mention that I use the ‘casual’ layout but nevertheless solved # 2. Thanks! (I didn’t think that commands in moderncvstyleclassic.sty would influence the ‘casual’ layout so I didn’t look there first.)

I meant both justification and hyphenation and so far only justification works thanks to your help… Any ideas about hyphenation? btw, latex is so good at doing it, why was it turned off in the first place?

I used a minipage because I wanted to have the main text in quotation style (indented on the right and left) and suddenly it’s hyphenated again.
