CV di una pagina con barra laterale

Un CV A4 di una pagina: la barra prugna è un riquadro in una colonna per soli flottanti, estesa ai margini dall’intestazione, con le date allineate a destra.

In questa pagina
  • Esempio in inglese: non c’è ancora un’edizione italiana
  • Formato 210 × 297 mm
  • Colonna e mezza, Intercolonna di 10 mm
  • Hanken Grotesk 9,3/13,2
  • Hedvig Letters Serif
  • 1 pagina
  • Livello
  • Postext 1.29.1
  • Impaginato in 45 ms
  • 176 righe di codice

In breve

Il CV di una pagina di una grafica editoriale, con una fascia colorata lungo il lato sinistro per i contatti e le competenze. Le date di ogni impiego si allineano a destra.

Che cosa comporrai

Il CV di Irene Salcedo, una grafica editoriale immaginaria di Madrid, su un solo foglio A4. Una fascia prugna larga 66 mm scende lungo il bordo sinistro dalla testa del foglio al piede. In cima, una pila di libri rilegati in tela disegnata via codice sta all’altezza della linea di base del suo nome. Sotto vengono i contatti, le competenze e gli strumenti composti come pillole, le lingue, la formazione e l’insegnamento, e ciò che fa fuori dal lavoro. Il suo nome, in Hedvig Letters Serif da 46 pt, apre una colonna di testo di 118 mm con un profilo di cinque righe, tre impieghi e un elenco dei libri che ha progettato. Il titolo di ogni impiego mette la qualifica a sinistra e le date allineate a destra sulla stessa linea di base, con il datore di lavoro in corsivo sotto. Il primo titolo della barra laterale condivide la linea di base con il ruolo sotto il nome.

Questa ricetta risponde a

  • Come creo un layout a colonna e mezza, con una colonna di testo larga e una colonna laterale stretta?
  • Come aggiungo una filigrana, una tinta di fondo o un’immagine decorativa su ogni pagina?
  • Come creo chip in linea: tasti della tastiera, etichette, banche di parole per esercizi?

La risposta breve

script.js · righe 47–67nel codice completo
const layout = {
  layoutType: 'oneAndHalf',
  sideColumnPercent: (SIDE / CONTENT) * 100, // 57 of the 185 mm between the margins
  sideColumnSide: 'left',
  sideColumnRole: 'floats', // no body text: only boxes fenced with span="side"
  gutterWidth: mm(GUTTER), // the text column keeps 185 − 57 − 10 = 118 mm
};
// A side box stands where the text has reached at its fence, so the Markdown opens with it,
// before the name, and it starts at the head of the column (gotcha: side-box-starts-at-fence):
//   :::callout{type="sidebar" span="side"}
//   :::callout{type="section" title="Contact"} … :::     ← the sections nest inside it
//   …
//   :::space{lines=2.76}    ← last: runs the band to the column's foot; a fifth of a line
//   :::                       more and the whole box moves to page 2
//   # Irene Salcedo {role="Book designer and art director"}
const sidebar = { id: 'sidebar', background: col('band'),
  // The first title stands on the role's line. The text starts 10 mm from the trim, the
  // left margin plus 1 mm, and stops 10 mm short of the band's right edge.
  padding: { top: mm(ROLE_Y), right: mm(10), bottom: pt(0), left: mm(1) },

Preparazione

#1 · Annida le sezioni in un solo riquadro laterale

script.js · righe 91–102nel codice completo
// The sections nest in one side box. As separate side boxes they would stand at least a line
// of paper apart (gotcha: side-boxes-line-apart). A nested box ignores span and flows inside
// its parent (gotcha: nested-callout-limits).
const section = (id, lineHeight) => ({ id, backgroundEnabled: false, // the band shows through
  padding: { top: pt(0), right: pt(0), bottom: pt(0), left: pt(0) },
  marginTop: mm(10),
  titleStyle: { ...caps('glow'), gap: mm(2.4) },
  body: { ...sidebar.body, lineHeight: pt(lineHeight) } });
const chipStyles = [{ id: 'skill', fontFamily: SANS, fontSize: pt(7.6), bold: true,
  background: col('chip'), color: col('paper'), borderWidth: pt(0),
  borderRadius: em(1), // past half the chip's height: a pill
  paddingX: em(0.6), paddingY: em(0.22), gap: em(0.3) }];

Dentro la colonna, la fascia è il riquadro della risposta breve. La sua recinzione viene prima del nome, quindi span="side" lo mette in testa alla colonna per soli elementi flottanti. Le sezioni sono riquadri annidati al suo interno, senza riempimento proprio, così il prugna corre senza interruzioni da «Contact» a «Outside work». Come riquadri laterali separati starebbero a una distanza da 4,7 a 9,1 mm, anche con marginBottom a 0. Le pillole sono alte circa 3,9 mm. «Skills» e «Tools» usano uno stile di sezione proprio, chips, la cui interlinea di 16 pt lascia 1,8 mm tra le righe; i 12,4 pt delle altre sezioni ne lascerebbero mezzo (stili dei chip).

#2 · Dipingi i margini attorno alla colonna

script.js · righe 71–87nel codice completo
// Header elements are painted after the text, over it, so these stay in the margins, where
// no text runs (gotcha: header-paints-over-text). They repeat on every page.
const BAND_W = LEFT + SIDE; // mm from the trim edge to the band's right edge
const SEAM = 0.5; // mm of overlap with the box, so no hairline of paper shows between them
const REACH = 1; // mm the foot box climbs above the column's foot, over the end of the box
const bandBox = (id, x, y, w, h) => ({ kind: 'box', id, style: { backgroundColor: col('band') },
  placement: { ...at('page', 'top-left', x, y), size: { width: mm(w), height: mm(h) } } });
const header = { elements: [
  bandBox('head', 0, 0, BAND_W, TOP + SEAM), // above the column: the top margin
  bandBox('edge', 0, 0, LEFT + SEAM, TRIM_H), // beside it: the left margin, top to bottom
  bandBox('foot', 0, TRIM_H - BOTTOM - REACH, BAND_W, BOTTOM + REACH), // below it
  // Painted last, over the box's top padding, where no text runs. The bottom of the stack
  // sits on the name's baseline.
  { kind: 'image', id: 'books', resourceId: 'books', placement: {
    ...at('page', 'top-left', LEFT + 1, TOP + BASELINE - BOOKS.h),
    size: { width: mm(BOOKS.w), height: mm(BOOKS.h) } } },
] };

La colonna laterale sta dentro i margini della pagina, quindi il riquadro della barra laterale si ferma 9 mm prima del bordo sinistro e 18 mm prima della testa. Tre riquadri dell’intestazione riempiono il margine superiore sopra la colonna, il margine sinistro dalla testa al piede e il margine inferiore sotto la colonna. Gli elementi dell’intestazione vengono dipinti dopo il testo e sopra di esso, quindi la ricetta li tiene nei margini, dove non scorre testo. Si ripetono inoltre su ogni pagina, e una seconda pagina porterebbe anch’essa la fascia (intestazioni e piè di pagina). I riquadri superiore e sinistro si sovrappongono di 0,5 mm al riquadro della barra laterale, e il riquadro di piede sale 1 mm sopra il piede della colonna, oltre la fine del riquadro della barra laterale, così nelle giunture non si vede alcun filo di carta. Lo :::space che chiude il riquadro della barra laterale lo porta fino a 278,0 mm, 0,8 mm sopra il piede della colonna, con 2,76 righe in inglese e 1,76 in spagnolo.

#3 · Componi il nome in testa alla colonna di testo

script.js · righe 106–118nel codice completo
const nameplate = { enabled: true, slot: { elements: [
  { kind: 'text', id: 'name', content: '{titleText}', fontFamily: SERIF,
    fontSize: pt(NAME.size), lineHeight: 1, color: col('ink'),
    placement: at('container', 'top-left') },
  { kind: 'text', id: 'role', content: '{attr.role}', ...caps('accent'),
    placement: at('#name', 'below', 0, NAME.gap) },
] } };
const nameLevel = { level: 1, // span stays 'column': the name heads the text column only
  // No break before the name: the sidebar box is already on the page, and a break would
  // move the name and the whole text column to page 2.
  breakBefore: { enabled: false },
  marginBottom: pt(LEAD), // one grid line of air under the role
  advancedDesign: nameplate };

L’H1 mantiene lo span: 'column' predefinito. Con 'page' diventa un’apertura su entrambe le colonne; composto dopo il riquadro della barra laterale, passa a pagina 2, e lì la colonna laterale comincia sotto il nome, 45,9 mm più in basso. breakBefore è disattivato perché il riquadro della barra laterale è già sulla pagina: con un’interruzione, il nome e l’intera colonna di testo passano a pagina 2. Il marginBottom del livello, pari a una riga di griglia, fa cominciare il profilo a 45,9 mm invece che a 41,3 mm. Il padding superiore del riquadro della barra laterale è ROLE_Y, l’altezza del nome più lo spazio sotto, così il primo titolo della barra laterale e il ruolo condividono una linea di base, a 39,3 mm dal bordo superiore.

#4 · Metti le date sulla riga della qualifica

script.js · righe 130–149nel codice completo
const JOB = 9.8; // pt: the job title, the dates and the employer share the size and leading
const jobText = (id, content, look) => ({ kind: 'text', id, content, fontFamily: SANS,
  fontSize: pt(JOB), lineHeight: LEAD / JOB, // the body's leading, as a multiple of the size
  align: 'left', ...look }); // without align, design text is centred in its box
const job = { enabled: true, slot: { elements: [
  jobText('title', '{titleText}', { fontWeight: 700, color: col('ink'), overflow: 'wrap',
    placement: { ...at('container', 'top-left'), size: { width: mm(84) } } }), // clear of dates
  jobText('dates', '{attr.dates}', { color: col('muted'),
    placement: at('container', 'top-right') }), // the title's top and size, so its baseline
  jobText('org', '{attr.org}', { italic: true, color: col('muted'),
    placement: at('#title', 'below') }),
] } };
const jobLevel = { level: 3, fontSize: pt(JOB), lineHeight: pt(LEAD), marginTop: pt(9),
  marginBottom: pt(0), advancedDesign: job };
// The section head takes 20 pt under 19.6 pt of space, three grid lines, so a job head
// starts the same 9 pt under a grid line after a section head as after a list. The 9 pt
// below it merge with a job head's 9 pt above. Under Selected books they push the list to
// the next grid line, as the default 7 pt would; with 0 it would start one line higher.
const sectionLevel = { level: 2, fontSize: pt(14), lineHeight: pt(20),
  marginTop: pt(3 * LEAD - 20), marginBottom: pt(9), advancedDesign: sectionHead };

Ogni impiego è un H3 i cui attributi portano il datore di lavoro e le date: ### Art director {org="Ediciones del Albardín, Madrid" dates="2021 – present"} (attributi dei titoli). La qualifica e le date sono ancorate alla sommità dello stesso contenitore, una per angolo, con lo stesso corpo e la stessa interlinea, quindi stanno su un’unica linea di base. La qualifica è limitata a 84 mm e va a capo: una qualifica lunga passa su una seconda riga prima di raggiungere le date, e il datore di lavoro scende sotto di essa. Con lo spazio sopra, ogni titolo di sezione occupa esattamente tre righe di griglia, il che mette ogni titolo d’impiego 9 pt sotto una riga di griglia, che segua un titolo di sezione o un elenco.

I work on series and covers as closely as on the page, and write the specifications printers work from. I am looking for an art director’s post with a literary or illustrated list. ::: ## Experience ### Art director {org="Ediciones del Albardín, Madrid" dates="2021 – present"} - Set and maintain the house style of three imprints: 58 new titles in 2025, from pocket novels to illustrated non-fiction. - Redesigned the pocket series on a 110 × 178 mm trim. Its grid holds 32 lines a page instead of 29, so the 2024 list needed about 9 per cent fewer pages than the 2023 list for the same number of titles. - Lead two designers and a typesetter, and commission the illustrators and photographers for each season’s list. - Moved print and ebook editions to one source file, so the ebook now ships the same week as the hardback. ### Senior book designer {org="Casa Albero, Barcelona" dates="2016 – 2021"} - Designed interiors and covers for about 40 titles a year of literary fiction and essays, in Spanish and Catalan. - Wrote the typesetting rules for the Catalan list: hyphenation, the l·l, quotation marks and dialogue dashes. - Designed the twelve volumes of the collected poems of Elvira Montcada, with the notes set in the margin. ### Designer and typesetter {org="Imprenta Quirós, Valencia" dates="2012 – 2016"} - Set critical editions with notes on up to three levels, and the bibliographies and indexes that go with them, for two university presses. - Prepared files for offset printing: imposition, colour proofs and the paper and binding specifications. ## Selected books - *Los años del salitre*, Marta Ibarra. Albardín, 2023. Cover, interior and a two-colour map section. - *Cartas desde Menorca*, Miquel Truyols. Casa Albero, 2019. A bilingual edition on facing pages. - *Obra reunida*, Elvira Montcada. Casa Albero, 2018–2020. Twelve volumes in a cloth slipcase. :::paragraphs{style="colophon"} Set in Hedvig Letters Serif and Hanken Grotesk. Text: CC BY 4.0. :::

#Ricolora la fascia

Ogni colore è scritto una volta sola, in palette, e i riquadri della fascia, il riquadro della barra laterale, i chip, il ruolo, i titoli e il disegno lo prendono da lì. Queste tre righe rendono verde petrolio la fascia, l’accento e i chip.

#Fai flottare figure nella stessa colonna

Il manuale con colonna a margine mette figure, didascalie laterali e glosse in una colonna per soli elementi flottanti sul bordo esterno di ogni pagina.

Errori frequenti

Errore frequente

Un riquadro laterale parte all’altezza del blocco che segue il suo delimitatore

In postext 1.4.1 un riquadro span: 'side' si colloca nella colonna laterale all’altezza a cui è arrivato il testo nel punto del suo delimitatore, sulla riga successiva della griglia e sotto qualunque riquadro già presente. Metti il delimitatore di una glossa subito prima del paragrafo che spiega: messa dopo, la glossa comincia accanto al paragrafo seguente. Un riquadro che sforerebbe il piede della colonna sale finché il suo piede non coincide con il piede della colonna, per quanto lo permette il riquadro sopra di esso; uno che ancora non ci sta aspetta la colonna laterale della pagina successiva. Note a margine →

Errore frequente

I riquadri laterali impilati nel canale lasciano una riga di carta tra loro

In postext 1.4.1 un riquadro span: 'side' lascia sotto di sé almeno una riga di testo corrente prima dell’elemento successivo nel canale, arrotondata alla griglia della linea di base, qualunque cosa dica il suo marginBottom. I riquadri che condividono uno sfondo quindi non si toccano mai: impilati, si leggono come schede separate. Per un unico pannello continuo, apri un solo riquadro laterale e annida le sezioni al suo interno. Note a margine →

Errore frequente

:::space viene eliminato in cima a un riquadro o a una colonna

:::space viene eliminato in cima a una colonna, a un gruppo :::columns, a un riquadro senza titolo che ha altro contenuto e alla continuazione di un riquadro diviso. Da postext 1.5 un riquadro fatto solo di :::space è alto quanto chiede lo spazio (una casella per la risposta, spazio per scrivere), e lo spazio subito sotto il titolo di un riquadro fa cominciare il corpo altrettanto più in basso. Per aprire con dello spazio un riquadro senza titolo, dagli un titolo o una prima riga e aggiungi lo spazio dopo. Spazio verticale esplicito →

Errore frequente

Gli elementi di intestazione e piè di pagina dipingono sopra il testo

Gli elementi di intestazione e piè di pagina vengono dipinti sopra la pagina e l’area del testo non fa loro spazio. Tienili entro i margini, che sono ciò che ne riserva lo spazio. Testatine e folio →

Errore frequente

Un riquadro annidato ignora span, placement e snapToGrid

Un riquadro annidato in un altro ignora i suoi span, placement, snapToGrid e floatBarrier: scorre sempre dentro il suo genitore, alla larghezza interna del genitore. Riquadri annidati →

  • Adatta lo :::space alla pagina. Nell’edizione inglese 2,76 righe chiudono il riquadro 0,8 mm sopra il piede della colonna. A 2,96 righe va 0,1 mm oltre il piede e l’intera barra laterale passa a pagina 2; a 2,66 si apre una striscia di carta tra il riquadro e il riquadro di piede.
  • Un riquadro nel progetto grafico del nome non serve a dipingere la fascia. Il titolo riserva l’altezza del riquadro, quindi un riquadro alto quanto la fascia gli fa riservare più dei 260,8 mm della colonna, e il testo passa a pagina 2. Con reserve: false il riquadro non riserva nulla, ma un progetto grafico nella colonna viene tagliato al piede della colonna, e il margine inferiore resterebbe bianco.
