Sharing & exporting

Download your resume as a PDF

How to export, what you get, and the one thing worth knowing before you download if you're still inside a refund window.

Exporting gives you a real PDF: selectable text, standard page size, no watermark on any plan.

How to export

  1. Open the resume from your resumes.
  2. Use the download option in the editor.
  3. The PDF is generated and downloaded.

What you get

  • Real, selectable text — not an image of a page. That's what makes it readable by screening software.
  • The document you saw in the preview. Preview and export share one rendering engine, so page breaks and spacing match.
  • No watermark, on the free plan or Premium.

Check it before you send

Thirty seconds, once:

  • Open the file itself, not the preview.
  • Check the last page. That's where an unexpected orphan line shows up.
  • Select all and copy the text into a plain text editor. If it pastes as sensible text in a sensible order, a parser will read it fine.

Naming the file

Rename it before you send it. Sarah-Okafor-Resume.pdf is easier for someone with forty attachments than whatever the browser called it.

Before you download, if you just bought

Downloading or exporting a document voids the standard refund conditions. Exporting is the value moment of a purchase, so it ends the standard refund window for it.

If you're still deciding whether to keep your plan, read how refunds work before you export. If you're happy with your purchase, ignore this and download away.
