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

  • • Pasted text takes the summary's own font and size.
  • • Shorter text pulls the sections below up; longer text pushes them down.

Questions people ask
