Curricula Vitae / Résumés ⇒ Cannot compile

It bothers me that neither xetex nor xelatex successfully compiles.

When running xetex, error occurs that

Code: Select all

! Undefined control sequence.

                   []{friggeri-cv} % Add 'print' as an option into the squar...

When running xelatex, error occurs that

I hope that solutions can be recommended. Thank you!

Hey,

This template should be compiled with XeLaTeX and your problem is caused by:

Code: Select all

! fontspec error: "font-not-found"
! 
! The font "Helvetica Neue" cannot be found.

You need to download the Helvetica Neue font in order to compile the template. You should be able to find it after a quick search and install it on your operating system. XeLaTeX will then pick it up and stop giving you that error and (hopefully) compile the template!

Cheers,
Vel

Hey Vel,

I have a similar problem. I am unable to find a link to the Helvetica Neue font, unless I am misunderstanding the file type it should be. Could you perhaps provide me with a link to a place to download the font?

Thank you

Where do I find the Helvetica font for Ubuntu and... how do I install it?

Hi,

Have a look here for installing fonts in Ubuntu: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Fonts

Regarding where to get the Helvetica font, I found this comment on an Ubuntu forum: "You can use the Synaptic Package Manager to download the "texlive-fonts-recommended" package. It includes, inter alia, Helvetica and my personal candidate for most beautiful font, Palatino."

Good luck!

Cheers,
Vel

ok, that worked fine but now.... at the time of compiling i've got this

Code: Select all

/usr/share/texmf-texlive/tex/generic/oberdiek/ifluatex.sty)

! Package unicode-math Error: Cannot run with this version of XeTeX!
(unicode-math)                You need XeTeX 0.9998 or newer..

See the unicode-math package documentation for explanation.
Type  H <return>  for immediate help.

the installed version of xetex is texlive-xetex 2009-7.....

I've downloaded unicode-math from https://github.com/wspr/unicode-math.

Hey,

You need to install a newer version of xetex to fix this problem. I'd recommend you update your LaTeX distribution to the newest version and everything will work!
