How the Minimal template is built

Minimal has the widest margins of the four (62 points, about 22 mm) and the most space between lines. The name is set in regular weight, not bold, and nothing is underlined or boxed.

Section headings are small, bold and colored, with extra space above them instead of a rule. The effect is a calm page where a short text looks intentional instead of thin.

Because there are no rules to anchor the eye, keep the content regular: the same order of information in every job, dates always in the same format.

Frequently asked questions

Is Minimal good for a resume with no experience?

Yes. Generous margins and line spacing let education, courses and projects fill the page without padding the text.

How much text fits in the Minimal template?

Roughly 49 lines of body text on a page, against about 53 in Modern and 65 in Compact.
