How to change page size

Your PDF resume can be Letter or A4. Letter is standard in the United States and Canada. A4 is standard almost everywhere else.

  1. Open your resume and click Preview & Download.

  2. Under the PDF settings box, click Page settings to open it.

  3. Click Letter or A4 on the Size row.

    Page settings open, with A4 selected on the Size row and the four margin lists below it
    Size sits at the top of Page settings, above the margins.

Good to know

  • Page size is free on every plan.
  • Page size applies to your PDF and to your public resume page, which is drawn as the same sheet of paper. A Word file uses the layout built into that template instead.
  • A4 is a little narrower and a little taller than Letter, so switching can move where your page breaks fall. Scroll through the document after you change it.
  • Match the country you are applying to, not the one you live in.
