How it works

  1. Fill in the sections

    Contact, summary, experience, education and skills. Open only the sections you need; empty ones are left out of the sheet.

  2. Watch the A4 sheet

    Each line you type is placed on the page as it will be in the file. The counter above the sheet tells you when the text runs to a second page.

  3. Download the PDF

    One button, no form in between. Keep versions for different jobs in File, and export a backup if you want to continue on another device.

Why use ResumeStudio

No account, no payment step
There is no sign-up, login or checkout anywhere in this site. “Download PDF” builds the file in your browser and saves it.
A PDF made of text, not a picture
Every line is written with the standard PDF fonts. You can select and copy it, and so can resume-reading software. An automated test extracts the text from the generated file.
The preview is the file
One layout engine positions each line for both the on-screen sheet and the PDF, so line breaks and page count are the same in both.
One column, no tables or text boxes
All four templates run top to bottom in a single column and section headings have no letter-spacing, so the reading order in the file is the order you see.
Your data stays in this browser
The resume is saved in localStorage and exported as a JSON file when you ask. “Erase everything” is in the File menu.
A checklist that says what it checks
Thirteen plain items such as “every job has a start date”. The job comparison lists the posting’s terms found and not found. Neither is called a score.

What to write in each section

Summary. Two to four sentences: what you do, for how long, and one result with a number. Skip adjectives a reader cannot check. “Account executive with six years in logistics software; closed $1.4M last year at 118% of quota” says more than “dynamic, results-driven professional”.

Experience. Most recent job first. For each one, give the title, the company, the dates and three or four achievements. Start each achievement with a verb and include a figure when you have one: people served, money saved, time cut, items handled per day.

Education and courses. School, degree and years. Add short courses and certifications when the job posting asks for them or when you are starting out and they are your strongest evidence.

Skills. Group them (tools, languages, methods) and list only what you could talk about in an interview. Use the same words the job posting uses: the resume check shows which of its terms are missing from your text.

Length. One page for most careers under ten years, two at most. If you are a few lines over, try the Compact template before cutting content.

Frequently asked questions

Is ResumeStudio really free?

Yes. The site has no account system and no payment step. You fill in the form, press “Download PDF” and the file is built in your browser.

Can I select and copy the text in the PDF?

Yes. The PDF is written as text with the standard Helvetica and Times fonts, not as an image of the page. Open it and try selecting a line. That is also what lets resume-reading software extract your information.

Where is my resume stored?

In this browser only, in localStorage, as plain unencrypted text. It is not sent to a server. If you clear the browser data or switch devices it will not be there, so export a JSON backup from the File menu. On a shared computer, use “Erase everything” when you finish.

Why does the preview show two pages?

Because the PDF will have two pages. The on-screen sheet and the PDF come from the same layout, so the page count shown above the sheet is the real one. To get back to one page, shorten older jobs, switch to the Compact template or remove a section.

Can I keep different versions for different jobs?

Yes. In File you can create a blank version, duplicate the current one, rename and delete versions. Each version keeps its own template, color and section order.

Which characters does the PDF support?

Western European characters: English, Portuguese, Spanish, French, German and similar. Emoji and scripts such as Cyrillic, Arabic or Chinese are not in the standard PDF fonts; the editor shows a notice listing any character it had to replace.

Can I start from a LinkedIn PDF or an old .docx?

Yes. In the empty sheet or in File, choose “Import PDF or DOCX”. The file is read in your browser and is not uploaded. It fills in what it recognizes (contact details, summary, jobs, education, projects, skills, certifications and languages) as a new version, and your other versions stay as they are. Sections the site does not have, such as awards or volunteering, are left out. Check every field before you download.
