Deedy Resume (OpenFont) template FAQ
- Is the Deedy Resume (OpenFont) better for ATS than the two-column Deedy?
- Yes. The OpenFont variant keeps every section in a single column, so the compiled PDF extracts top to bottom in the order ATS parsers expect. The two-column Deedy layout does not; strict parsers pull its text out of reading order. If your applications go through automated screening, this single-column version is the safer way to keep the Deedy look.
- Do I need LaTeX installed to use this Deedy template?
- No. ResumeWizard compiles the Deedy Resume (OpenFont) template in the cloud. You fill in your sections through a normal online editor, watch the typeset page update in a live preview, and download the PDF when you are done. The Lato and Raleway typography is preserved exactly, without installing TeX distributions, fonts, or editors on your computer.
