PDF Export With Real, Selectable Text
Many resume builders export flattened image PDFs that an ATS cannot read, then ask you to pay at the download step. ReframeCV exports text-based PDFs, and downloads never cost credits.

Selectable Text
Every word is real text in the file, not an image, so parsers can extract it and you can copy and search it in any PDF reader.
Clean Layouts
Single-column templates keep a strict reading order for application portals. Sidebar and two-column templates give a human reader more to scan.
No Download Paywall
PDF exports never cost credits and carry no watermark. Credits pay for AI actions such as tailoring and scoring, not for files.

Layouts
Single-Column or Multi-Column Templates
Templates are built for different readers. Single-column layouts keep a simple top-to-bottom reading order for application portals, while sidebar and two-column templates suit resumes a person will read directly.
- Single column: the simplest reading order for ATS parsers
- Sidebar layouts: skills and contact details beside your experience
- Switch templates after creating a resume; the content stays the same

Export details
You Built the Resume. You Own the File.
A common pattern is to let you build for free and charge at the moment you click download. ReframeCV does not work that way: every resume you create can be exported without a watermark or an upgrade prompt.
Credits pay for AI, not for files
Credits are spent on tailoring, scoring, and writing. Generating the PDF itself never costs a credit.
