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

  • • Only the words you touch are rewritten; the rest of the line keeps its exact spacing.
  • • If the right letter was never used in the file, the complete font is loaded so it matches.

Questions people ask

+Will anyone see that the resume was edited?

No. The corrected word is set in the resume's own font at the same position.

+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.
