@ -46,6 +46,41 @@ It is possible to build your document using either \LaTeX|, \XeLaTeX, or
\LuaLaTeX. I personally prefer one of the latter two because they make
it easier to select proper fonts.

\section{Making this template \emph{yours}}
%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
Prior to using this template, the first thing you want to do is probably
a little bit of customisation. You can achieve quick changes in look and
feel by picking your own fonts. With the \verb|fontspec| package loaded
and \XeLaTeX or \LuaLaTeX as your compiler, this is pretty simple:
%
\begin{verbatim}
\setmainfont{Your main font}
\setsansfont{Your sans-serif font}
\setmonofont{Your monospaced font}
\end{verbatim}
%
Make sure to select nice combinations of that are pleasing to
\emph{your} eyes---this is your document and it should reflect your own
style. Make sure to specify font names as they are provided by your
system. For instance, you might want to use the following combination:
%
\begin{verbatim}
\setmainfont{Baskerville}
\setsansfont[Scale=MatchLowercase]{IBM Plex Sans}
\setmonofont[Scale=MatchLowercase]{IBM Plex Mono}
\end{verbatim}
%
If these fonts exist on your system, your normal text will look
{\fontspec{Baskerville}{a little bit different from the other font used
in this example PDF}}, while your sans-serif font {\fontspec[Scale=MatchLowercase]{IBM Plex Sans}will
pair nicely with your} {\fontspec[Scale=MatchLowercase]{IBM Plex Mono}{monospaced font}}.
%
You can also remove the \verb|Scale| directive, but I find that most
fonts pair better if they are adjusted in size a little bit. Experiment
with it until you finds a combination that you enjoy.
