a4paper setting causes overlapping words

[itachi-19]

I edited mcdowellcv.cls line 35 to this:

 % Set font size and paper type
 \LoadClass[a4paper,\mainfontsize]{article}

Resulting in this:

I have the same problem, any solution so far?

[dnl-blkv]

Should be fixed. @goseind, please confirm :)

@dnl-blkv The issue still persists for me. I believe this only happens with text in a cvsubsection.

[dnl-blkv]

@martenmatrix do you have an idea on how this can be fixed? It might be the PR missed the cvsubsection case :)

[martenmatrix]

@dnl-blkv I 've looked a bit more into it and I recognized that it only happens on cvsubsection's where I have to explicitly pass a value to the linesum argument to stop it from overlapping with its content. This works when using the US letter format. In the A4 format, the argument does not prevent overlapping until I set it to actual linesum + 1.

I think it's happening because the values of \def\afterdoublelinesubsectionheaderspace and \def\aftermultilinesubsectionheaderspace are not changed after setting the paper to A4, as far as I can read the code.
