I am writing a resume using res.cls
.
I would like to write a non-indented paragraph under a section heading but can't figure out how to override the heavily indented margins used for columns under sections. I have tried \flushleft
and a few other things but that nothing has worked. Anyone have any suggestions?
A minimal working example illustrating the undesired indentation:
\documentclass{res}
\usepackage{lipsum}% just to generate text for the example
\begin{document}
\section{Test Section}
\lipsum[4]
\end{document}

As Alan Munn suggests in his comment, you should consider using another document class (
res.cls
is very old, and poorly documented). That being said, according to the comments onres.cls
, you can solve your problem using the\newsectionwidth{<length>}
command which controls the amount that the section titles go in the left margin; a little example:The above solution moves the section title to the right; now that I reread the question, perhaps the desired effect is to leave the title as it is and move the block of text to the left; if this is the case,
\parshape
will do the job:
