I am using cv_JMarc.layout to make my CV and it is great. The problem is that I don't really know what I am doing. For example, how do I change the distance between the topic name and it's entry in "topic". What I mean is that I would like to have "Italian/Spanish working knowledge" but at the moment this wraps horribly as there isn't enough space for "Italian/Spanish". I have attached my effort so far so you can see the problem (and maybe give me a job :) ).
Cheers, Raphael

: Pretty good, but all my tutorials on CV tell me that 4 page CV is too
long.
Maybe, that it is more permissible in academic environment.

Actually I don't either..
a friend claimed that 4-5 pages is standard for academic CV's.
Personally I'd say two is maximum (excluding list of publications probably).
