Adding footnote to cv

Post by Giu »

Hello,

I am using the modern cv template with classic style.
I really like it, but I would like to add a footnote at the end of each page just saying something like "CV for company ....", maybe on the same line of the page number.
Does any of you know how to modify the .sty file in order to achieve that?
Thanks a lot!

Hello Giu,

welcome to the forum!

I think there is no page number in that template. By the way, never change a .sty file, better modify the .tex file of a template that you fill in.

Anyway, you could look for the line

\extrainfo{additional information}

in the cv.tex file, and put your text in, such as \extrainfo{CV for company ...}

Hi Stefan,

thank you for the advice about the .sty file!

If I use the extrainfo line as you suggest, the additional information will appear near my picture, on the top page.
However, I do look for a footnote... any further help?

Ah, I see, that's different in the classic style. I just checked the casual style.

Here is a suggestion - add to your document preamble, in the .tex file:

Code: Select all

\fancyfoot[l]{\parbox[b]{.8\textwidth}{\color{color2}\addressfont\itshape CV for company ...}}
