This repository holds my resume (Chinese and English), the resume LaTeX template, and the Font Awesome 5 LaTeX style.

This template is based on the YACC: Another Awesome CV by Christophe Roger, which is further based on the Plasmati Graduate CV by Alessandro Plasmati.

I wrote a simple tool make-fontawesome5.py, which will download the latest icon list from the Font Awesome project and then generate the LaTeX style file for using the latest Font Awesome 5 fonts (the free edition) in LaTeX.

This Python script requires the PyYAML package, which can be installed with pip3 install --user PyYAML or sudo apt install python3-yaml.

A pre-generated style file fontawesome5.sty (matches Font Awesome v5.10.1) is also provided.

The Font Awesome fonts are designed by the Font Awesome project and can be obtained from here. NOTE: All the following 3 fonts should be installed into the system:

• Font Awesome 5 Free (generic icons in regular style, much less than the solid style)
• Font Awesome 5 Free Solid (generic icons in solid style)
• Font Awesome 5 Free Brands (various brand icons)

i.e., the following 3 OTF files are needed:

• Font Awesome 5 Free-Regular-400.otf
• Font Awesome 5 Free-Solid-900.otf
• Font Awesome 5 Brands-Regular-400.otf

Besides the Font Awesome fonts, this template also requires the following opensource fonts:

• IBM Plex (Serif, Mono)

  Download the OpenType.zip archive from the releases page, and then extract the IBM-Plex-Serif and IBM-Plex-Mono directories and install them.

• Source Han Serif

  The OTF font files for Simplified Chinese can be downloaded from here. Just download all the weight variants: ExtraLight, Light, Regular, Medium, SemiBold, Bold, Heavy.

Of course, you can use the fonts you prefer by modifying the template directly. However, you may need to tweak the column width accordingly.

On Linux systems, create a directory for each font family under ~/.local/share/fonts, then copy the font files (OTF or TTF) over, then execute fc-cache -f to refresh the font cache, done.

Take the Font Awesome font family as an example:

1. mkdir -p ~/.local/share/fonts/FontAwesome
2. cp <font-awesome-otf-files> ~/.local/share/fonts/FontAwesome/
3. fc-cache -fv
4. check the fonts correctly installed: fc-list | grep 'FontAwesome'
