ATS-friendly CV templates with a real PDF export
Write it here, see the page break, download the file you saw
An editor on the left, the document on the right, and one layout engine behind both. That is the whole idea: the page break you see on screen is the page break in the file, because the same code decided it and the same font file measured it.
The PDF is written in this tab. It is PDF 1.7 with a subset TrueType font embedded and a /ToUnicode map, so the text is selectable, searchable and machine readable rather than a picture of a page. Polish, Czech, Greek and Cyrillic all survive the export. For a script the embedded fonts do not cover, the tool names the characters and refuses, and offers printing - which uses the fonts on your own machine - instead of shipping a file with holes in somebody name.
There is no ATS score here, and there will not be one. Applicant tracking systems are not one system, they are dozens, they are not published, and a number invented by a website is a number about nothing. What the tool does instead is say which templates have a single reading order and where a photograph sits, and let you decide.
The checks panel is the same idea. Every finding is a fact about your document - this entry has no start date, these two jobs overlap, this bullet is 340 characters - with a button that takes you to the field. No percentages, no grades.
In this browser, in IndexedDB, on this device. There is no API call in the tool and no server copy: the only things the page fetches are the two font files it lays the document out with. Export the JSON whenever you want a copy you control.
The most important capabilities, explained in practical terms.
Professional, minimal, technical, timeline, executive, academic, banner, modern, right sidebar and tinted panel. Each is marked with whether it is single-column - a two-column reading order is not linear, so the tool says which templates avoid that rather than promising a score.
The same layout engine draws the page on screen and writes the PDF, using the same font file for both, so line breaks, page breaks and spacing agree. Measured agreement is within 0.05 px on a full line of text.
Experience, education, skills, languages, projects, certifications, courses, awards, volunteering, publications and a free-form section, each with the fields that kind of entry actually needs. Reorder them by drag or by keyboard.
The PDF is written in the tab as PDF 1.7 with a subset TrueType font embedded and a /ToUnicode map, so text can be selected and copied out. Polish, Czech, Greek and Cyrillic all export; anything the font cannot draw is named and the export refuses rather than shipping blanks.
Missing dates, entries that end before they start, overlapping jobs, bullets long enough to read as paragraphs, links that are not addresses. Each finding is a statement about your document with a button that goes to the field, and there is no invented percentage anywhere.
The accent colour is measured against white with the WCAG 2.2 formula and reported as a ratio, with the nearest shade of the same colour that reaches 4.5:1 offered when it falls short. A pale accent on white is a CV with headings nobody can read.
Export the whole document as JSON and import it back later or on another machine. The file is yours; there is no lock-in and no server copy to lose access to.
For scripts the embedded fonts do not cover - CJK, Arabic, Hebrew - the tool says so and offers printing instead, which uses the fonts installed on your own machine. A PDF with holes where somebody name was is worse than no PDF.
