How Microsoft Print to PDF writes resume PDFs

  • • Microsoft Print to PDF often draws every letter as a shape, so nothing can be selected.
  • • Applicant tracking systems cannot read a resume with no text.
  • • Thin letters and punctuation from many lines are often batched into one shape.
  • • See the Print to PDF section for how the text is recovered.

What happens to the rest of your resume

  • • New links are shown in blue and underlined, as readers expect.
  • • Web, email and phone links are supported.

Questions people ask

+Do links work in applicant tracking systems?

The link text stays real text, so it can be read; whether a system follows the link depends on the system.

+Is it better to edit in Microsoft Print to PDF?

If you still have the Microsoft Print to PDF version and a lot to change, yes. For a quick fix to the PDF you already sent, editing the PDF is faster.
