I was not clear. If we use moderncv we have to define the name, address etc in the preamble. The problem is if that you don't use enlish then the name etc are not displayed properly. Further, the name, address and sections fonts are different from the main body of the CV. Probably, we have to change some parameters in order to change that fonts but there is no manual for moderncv to explain the procedure. > > How can I expand the area in the upper right of the first page to > > accommodate > > more stuff?

I searched the net for that file but I could not find anything, so it should be misspelled. Then, I searched the files in my system for \moderncvtheme[blue, roman] {classic} and I could not find something and I thought the LyX wiki was an old one.
