How online resume builders writes PDFs

  • • Most builders render the resume in a browser engine and save it as PDF.
  • • Fonts are usually Google Fonts, sometimes as Type3 fonts.

What that means when you change a name

  • • Fonts are identified by their letter widths and loaded in full, so new text matches the template.

What happens to the rest of the page

  • • A longer name pushes the words after it along the line; right aligned names grow to the left.
  • • Names often contain letters the PDF has not used yet, like Z, Q or accented letters. The complete font is loaded for them.
