How Canva writes resume PDFs
- • Designs are exported with subset fonts, many of them Google Fonts.
- • Each text box is placed on its own, often line by line.
- • Shapes, icons and photos are layered around the text.
What happens to the rest of your resume
- • The new line copies the style of the line above it.
- • Only list certifications you actually hold.
Questions people ask
+Where should certifications go?
Under their own heading or in education, whichever your resume already uses.
+Is it better to edit in Canva?
If you still have the Canva version and a lot to change, yes. For a quick fix to the PDF you already sent, editing the PDF is faster.
