If you've designed your resume in HTML/CSS (or pulled it from a template), convert it to PDF that ATS (Applicant Tracking Systems) can actually parse. The PDF keeps the text layer intact - so keyword scans work, copy-paste works, and screen readers work. Different from PDFs generated by image-to-PDF tools where the text is just pixels.
When to use this
Use when: you've built a custom HTML resume and need an ATS-friendly PDF, exporting a resume from a no-code site builder (Carrd, Webflow) to PDF, converting your portfolio site's resume page to a downloadable PDF, ensuring your fancy-CSS resume survives ATS parsing.
Frequently Asked Questions
Will my fancy CSS layout pass ATS?
Maybe - depends on the ATS. Modern ATS (Greenhouse, Lever) handle multi-column layouts decently. Older ATS (Taleo, Workday) struggle. Test by extracting text from your PDF (right-click -> Select All -> Copy) and checking if the order is sensible. If it's scrambled, use a single-column layout.
Does it embed custom fonts?
Yes - fonts loaded via @font-face from the HTML are embedded in the PDF. Works for Google Fonts and self-hosted custom fonts. ATS parsers don't care about fonts (they read the text layer), but recruiters viewing the PDF will see your designed typography.
