Almeida CV Theme

Theme to build a customizeable printable HTML/CSS CV.

Screenshot

Features

  • Online CV with minor responsiveness
  • Printable as A4 PDF
  • HTML5 + CSS3
  • Customizeable colors

Print your PDF CV

When printing the page in the browser, you'll get a formatted A4 page that can be used as your PDF resume. If your page holds more than 1 A4 page, the content will be divided into the given amount of pages.

For better formatting, you can set the number of pages in the config.toml file.

If badges and other elements with background don't render correctly, remember to toggle the "Background Graphics" option in the print dialog.

Usage
