Hello Alessandro,

a very nice template! I would like to add a picture in the upper right corner. How can I do this?

Thanks again!

I’ve solved my own question about adding a footer to page two when dealing with multipage CVs. This is probably an ugly hack since I don’t really know Latex, but it seems to do the trick for me.

% To surpress pagination of pages.
\pagenumbering{gobble}

% Needed to access cofoot command I think
\pagestyle{scrheadings}

% Put your footer text here. I had to raise it a bit from the bottom for it to print properly. I did that by adding a \bigskip at the end which is probaly not the correct way of doing it, but works for me.

Hi!
in the command \usepackage[eulerchapternumbers,drafting,listings,%pdfspacing,%
subfig,beramono,eulermath,parts]{classicthesis}
you just have to delete the command “drafting”.
I’ve also been searching for a solution…it was written in the original “classicthesis”…
Cheers,
VB

Is there a way to suppress the date at the bottom of the page?

You should you the raisebox command and the baselineskip dimension to get the required result.

\begin{tabular}{p{28mm}l}
 
\raisebox{\baselineskip}{at top} & \begin{tabular}{l}% first nested table
right line 1\\
right line 2\\
right line 3\\
\end{tabular}\\\hline
 
not at top & \begin{tabular}{p{26mm}}% second nested table
right line 1\\
right line 2\\
right line 3\\
\end{tabular}\\
 
\end{tabular}

Alessandro, a question about nested tables which Google is not answering:

In the below simplified example, the words “not at top” should appear at the top (ie across from the word “right line 1″)

\usepackage{array}
\begin{tabular}{p{28mm}l}

not at top & \begin{tabular}{l}% first nested table
right line 1\\
right line 2\\
right line 3\\
\end{tabular}\\

not at top & \begin{tabular}{p{26mm}}% second nested table
right line 1\\
right line 2\\
right line 3\\
\end{tabular}\\

\end{tabular}

Neither of these nested tables has the text on the left hand side aligned at the top of the cell. This a highly simplified example so i can’t make it all one table as in the following (which is how I want it to look):

\begin{tabular}{ll}
not at top & right line 1\\
& right line 2\\
& right line 3\\
\end{tabular}\\

So how can I align the text to the top of a cell in tabular? The array package is supposed to do this with the p{26mm} command but it doesn’t work with nested tables. Any ideas? Your help would be greatly appreciated!

Thank you very much for this template, it’s looking great!

How does this style handle multiple page CVs? Is there an easy way of adding a footer or something to make it possible for the recruiter to identify the cv from only page two?

Do you have any ideas for using the same style for an accompanying cover letter?

Thanks again.
