Greek letters cannot be rendered
In its current state, rendercv cannot render greek letters.
I found a way to manually overcome this problem.
- Use manually
lualatex
instead ofpdflatex
inrenderer.py
(lines 942-946) - Insert these lines in Preamble.j2.tex of the theme that you use (for example
themes/classic/Preamble.j2.tex
)\usepackage{fontspec}
\setmainfont{Times New Roman}
and remove the default\usepackage[default, type1]{sourcesanspro} % for using source sans 3 font
In this way, Greek & English letters are rendered just fine!
My setup:
- Windows 10
- Python 3.11
- Rendercv 1.8
I hope that this post is helpful to anyone stuck on the same problem!
