I am new to Latex and would like to create a resume. I found a resume template on this link and downloaded res9a.tex on my computer. When I open this file on Texmaker and click on Quick Build, I get the following error:! LaTeX Error: File `res.cls' not found.
So I went back to the link and clicked on res.cls, which opened the following webpage. What should I do after this in order to successfully run the resume code on Texmaker?
For convenience sake, the resume code given in res9a.tex is as follows:
% LaTeX resume using res.cls
\documentclass[margin]{res}
%\usepackage{helvetica} % uses helvetica postscript font (download helvetica.sty)
%\usepackage{newcent} % uses new century schoolbook postscript font
\setlength{\textwidth}{5.1in} % set width of text portion
\begin{document}
% Center the name over the entire width of resume:
\moveleft.5\hoffset\centerline{\large\bf Susan R. Bumpershoot}
% Draw a horizontal line the whole width of resume:
\moveleft\hoffset\vbox{\hrule width\resumewidth height 1pt}\smallskip
% address begins here
% Again, the address lines must be centered over entire width of resume:
\moveleft.5\hoffset\centerline{1985 Storm Lane}
\moveleft.5\hoffset\centerline{Troy, NY 12180}
\moveleft.5\hoffset\centerline{(518) 273-0014 or (518) 272-6666}
