Very nice, can't wait for the English version.

For my resume I use this template: http://sampleresumetemplate.net/


Presuming that the intention is for print (I too, don't speak German), there's a slight flaw in the page template.

Besides inkjet, there's no consumer printers that have full page coverage, so you'll always end up with a white border. It makes designs like this look a little cheap when printed.

I assumed, with the wooden border, it was for web only - as all textures of this sort fail pretty badly in anything less than a professional print job, on good paper.

However the export options are PDF and Website, so print is probably one of the goals.


Looks awesome... but I wish I could read German. Looking forward to an english version.


FYI: If you are use the Google Chrome (in page) translator feature it does a pretty good job at translating it to English for you. It makes it at least 95% usable.


Seems we killed the site. And it doesn't seem like very cacheable content either.


Anyone know how they turn the html of the cv to a pdf so well?


I imagine they're using something like wkhtmltopdf[1] (WebKit HTML to PDF)

Which is AWESOME. After years of fighting crappy PDF generators, I found wkhtmltopdf and am very very happy!
