Changing name from upper case to title case

Post by MrJeevs »

Hi there,

I am using a CV Resume template (https://www.overleaf.com/latex/template ... qfpbwncfvp) and my question is about the case of the name that appears at the top of the CV.

How do I change my name at the top from uppercase lettering to sentence case?

For example, right now it reads MARISSA MAYER. I would like it to say: Marissa Mayer.

I have tried editing the altacv.cls file, but that does not seem to do the trick. Any tips?

Thanks!

We don't know what you've tried to edit in the class file.

You can remove the \MakeUppercase command in the definition of the \makecvheader command in the class file of your project.

The changed line should then look like this:

Code: Select all

{\namefont\color{name}\@name\par}
