# Notes on using LaTeX
To possibly spare yourself from headache:

## Simple boilerplate
Refer to `hello.tex`
For leaflets or flyers, https://tex.stackexchange.com/q/16355/274626 has nice
answers.
## Package management
**_Don't do this, use `YOURFAVOURITEPACKAGEMANAGER search texlive-moderncv`
or whatever_**
Fedora: remember to `sudo dnf install texlive-msg texlive-texlive-msg-translations` to
remove one nag. Which doesn't work with Finnish, naturally.
```bash
tlmgr init-usertree
tlmgr --ignore-warning --usermode install moderncv
```
## Installing custom templates
1. Put them to `~/texmf/tex/latex/local/` The `tlmgr init-usertree` might be useful?
- This can be verified with `kpsewhich -var-value=TEXMFHOME` in case this
happened to be not-Linux.
2. Run `texhash ~/texmf`
