It looks decent, I agree, but from typographic point of view, it looks lower visual quality than LaTeX-produced text. Look at how the letters seem to be unevenly aligned to the line, and the spacing between them is also not quite right. See for example [something cool] in your screenshot. The first bracket is miles away from the s, the closing bracket is stuck to the l. EDIT: another issue further down: compare Sed and Vestibulum. In the latter the e looks way too far from the initial letter. More careful kerning would push the e a bit under V's wings. I realize it's not the most important thing in the world, but still :) Anyway, I don't claim to be an expert in typography at all, that's why I also use LaTeX for my CV: http://www.lkozma.net/cv_kl.pdf http://www.lkozma.net/cv_kl.pdf

  I think that's just funky MS Word font rendering at low zoom settings. Zooming up removes that artifact, and the PDF doesn't display it like that at all. Certainly the actual spacing of the characters is fine, shown in PDF and printed versions.

  Two pages?

    That's not a résumé, it's an (academic) CV. They have a tendency to be long; our faculty head's, for instance, has 39 pages.

  No wonder you became a computer scientist -- with that name! ;-)

    Not sure I get the joke, do you know someone famous with the same name or does it just sound weird to you? :)

      The first Hungarian digital computer was designed in 1957 by someone with the same name, if I'm not mistaken.

        Ah, yes, you are right :)

I like this resume's design. To make it even better, I might just have to convert it to LaTeX.

The thing is contrary to anyone else with a pdf or html resumé, you had to take a png screenshot so we can see it.

  Office has PDF export capabilities for a while now.
