How Overleaf writes resume PDFs
- • pdfTeX embeds Type1 fonts such as Computer Modern or Latin Modern.
- • Kerning and ligatures are written into each line.
- • Resume classes draw rules and align dates with precise spacing.
What happens to the rest of your resume
- • The heading keeps its size, capitals, colour and rule.
- • Letter spaced headings stay letter spaced.
Questions people ask
+Can I add a new section?
Use Add below after a heading and the lines under it; each new line copies the style above.
+Is it better to edit in Overleaf?
If you still have the Overleaf version and a lot to change, yes. For a quick fix to the PDF you already sent, editing the PDF is faster.
