Currvita: cirillic and old style figures + right align item labels

Question

I have this document with currvita package:

\documentclass[12pt,a4paper]{article}
\usepackage{graphicx}
\usepackage[utf8]{inputenc}
\usepackage[russian]{babel}
\usepackage[T1]{fontenc}
\usepackage{cfr-lm}
\usepackage{currvita}
\usepackage{eso-pic}
\usepackage{array}
\usepackage{xcolor}
\usepackage[left=3cm, right=3cm, top=3cm]{geometry}
\pagenumbering{gobble}
\usepackage[overload]{textcase}
\newcommand*{\ac}[1]{\mbox{#1}}
\usepackage[unicode, hidelinks]{hyperref}
\tolerance=600
\begin{document}
\begin{cv}
    {1234567890}
    \begin{cvlist}{Interests}
        \item[2018] Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit. Duis pulvinar, lorem vel hendrerit convallis, lorem enim semper metus, ac imperdiet justo nisl eu lorem.
        \item[2017 — 2018] Лорем ипсум долор сит амет, ут иус цопиосае улламцорпер цонцлудатуряуе, яуи партем малуиссет интеллегат не.
    \end{cvlist}
\end{cv}
\end{document}
\endinput

I want to achieve two things: align the labels of the items to the right, and be able to use Russian alphabet and old style figures at the same time with the default font. The result should be something like this:

Does anyone know how to do that?

Answer 1

There are only a few fonts supporting oldstyle figures in Cyrillic:

• Lato (sans serif)
• Erewhon
• Heuristica (essentially the same as Erewhon)
• XCharter

For the right alignment, you can patch the \cvlist macro.

Here is with Erewhon.

\documentclass[12pt,a4paper]{article}
\usepackage[russian]{babel}

\usepackage{currvita}
\usepackage[left=3cm, right=3cm, top=3cm]{geometry}
\usepackage[osf]{erewhon}

\usepackage{graphicx}

\usepackage{eso-pic}
\usepackage{array}
\usepackage{xcolor}
\usepackage[overload]{textcase}
\usepackage{regexpatch}

\usepackage[unicode, hidelinks]{hyperref}

\newcommand*{\ac}[1]{\mbox{#1}}

%% right alignment
\tracingxpatches
\makeatletter
\xpatchcmd{\cvlist}{##1\hfill}{\hfill##1}{}{\ddt}
\makeatother

%\tolerance=600

\begin{document}
\begin{cv}

1234567890

\begin{cvlist}{Interests}

\item[2018] Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit. Duis pulvinar, lorem vel hendrerit convallis, lorem enim semper metus, ac imperdiet justo nisl eu lorem.

\item[2017 — 2018] Лорем ипсум долор сит амет, ут иус цопиосае улламцорпер цонцлудатуряуе, яуи партем малуиссет интеллегат не.

\end{cvlist}

\end{cv}

\end{document}

With \usepackage[osf]{XCharter} the output is

With \usepackage[default,oldstyle]{lato} the output is

You have more choices for fonts if you switch to XeLaTeX.
