Pesha

Pesha (Urdu: پیشہ) is the Urdu term for occupation/profession. It is pronounced as pay-sha.

A clean and minimal template for your CV or résumé.

This template is inspired by Matthew Butterick's excellent
Practical Typography book.

See example.pdf or example-profile-picture.pdf file to see
how it looks.

Usage

You can use this template in the Typst web app by clicking "Start from template" on the
dashboard and searching for pesha.

Alternatively, you can use the CLI to kick this project off using the command

typst init @preview/pesha

Typst will create a new directory with all the files needed to get you started.

Configuration

This template exports the pesha function with the following named arguments:

Argument	Type	Description
name	string	A string to specify the author's name.
address	string	A string to specify the author's address.
contacts	array	An array of content to specify your contact information. E.g., phone number, email, LinkedIn, etc.
profile-picture	content	The result of a call to the image function or none. For best result, make sure that your image has an 1:1 aspect ratio.
paper-size	string	Specify a paper size string to change the page size (default is a4).
footer-text	content	Content that will be prepended to the page numbering in the footer.
page-numbering-format	string	Pattern that will be used for displaying page numbering in the footer (default is 1 of 1).

The function also accepts a single, positional argument for the body.

The template will initialize your package with a sample call to the pesha function in a
show rule. If you, however, want to change an existing project to use this template, you
can add a show rule like this at the top of your file:

#import "@preview/pesha:0.4.0": *

#show: pesha.with(

  ),

)
