sending resumes from templates
I sent a few resumes from the templates but when I double checked the resume
it contained the help box and column! Should I cut and paste it on clipboard...I have Microsoft Word 2003. |

sending resumes from templates
I think you're going to have to back up and tell us what you're talking
about. What templates? What Help box and column? -- Suzanne S.

sending resumes from templates
The templates provided by Microsoft for resumes, etc. You just type in your
info from the various templates. There is a help box to the right...but I think I fixed it myself by copying my resume and pasting it on a new document. "Suzanne S.

sending resumes from templates
If you opened the template itself and edited it and saved it as your résumé,
then of course it was saved as a template, including the Template Help. The proper way to use a template is to create a new document based on it. -- Suzanne S.

Thanx Suzanne! That's what I figured out....one more questions is it OK to
send resumes out in Word as opposed to other word processing formats? "Suzanne S.

sending resumes from templates
Send the résumé in the format in which it is requested: Word, PDF, plain
text, hard copy. Note that if you send it in Word, it may not look the same on someone else's computer; see http://word.mvps.org/FAQs/Formatting/TextReflow.htm and http://sbarnhill.mvps.org/WordFAQs/HideGridlines.htm -- Suzanne S.

sending resumes from templates
Hi
I have to send my resume out tomorrow but I cannot seem to format this properly. Here is what I did... 1)Downloaded the Word resume template 2)Opened the templated - filled in my resume info 3)Did Save As a Word doc. My problem is when I click on the resume Word doc to open it, it's still in template view and format. I don't think an employer would be happy reviewing my resume in template format. How can I save or create my resume so that when a prospective employer views it it's in proper "print preview" style format NOT template format? I don't understand how to do your proper way described below. When I opned the template with my info on it and copied it to a new Word doc, it's still in template format. Is this possible to save and then have it viewed as print preview style NOT template format? Please help, URGENT! Thank you "Suzanne S.

sending resumes from templates
Resume templates use tables to format the document. Whether or not the grid
lines are displayed is a user setting, over which you have no control once you send the document. The answer is to send it as a PDF format document for which you will need extra software. There are several freeware PDF tools that will do the job or you can convert it on-line from Adobe's site.. -- Graham Mayor - Word MVP My web site www.gmayor.com Word MVP web site http://word.mvps.org TBC wrote: Hi I have to send my resume out tomorrow but I cannot seem to format this properly.

I suspect what you mean by this is that you are seeing the table gridlines.
