    Template & Style

    Seven templates, one set of data

    Switch templates at any time. Nothing you typed changes, only the layout.

    Everything a CV editor should do

    Real A4 preview
    Pages break between entries instead of through them, so what you see is what you download.
    Photo cropping on your device
    Upload a JPG or PNG, drag it into position, choose passport or circle. It is compressed locally and never uploaded.
    Every section is yours to shape
    Add, delete or drag sections into any order, and create custom sections like Awards or Volunteering.
    Undo, redo, autosave
    Ctrl+Z and Ctrl+Y work across edits. Your CV saves to this browser as you type.
    ATS-friendly mode
    One click switches to a plain single-column layout with standard headings.
    Backup and restore
    Export your CV as a JSON file and import it on any device.

    About CVForge

    CVForge is a free, open, browser-only CV builder. There is no server, no account and no tracking of your CV. Everything runs in HTML, CSS and vanilla JavaScript, and your data lives in your browser’s local storage until you clear it.

    The goal is simple: make it easy to edit a CV and produce a clean, professional A4 document you can send with confidence.

    Help

    How do I reorder sections?

    Drag the ⋮⋮ handle on a section card, or use the ↑ and ↓ buttons (best on phones and tablets). Personal information always stays at the top as the CV header.

    How do I reposition my photo?

    Upload a photo, then drag it inside the frame and use the zoom slider. With the keyboard, focus the photo frame and use the arrow keys.

    My CV is longer than one page. What happens?

    Extra A4 pages are added automatically. Entries are kept together where possible and headings are never left alone at the bottom of a page.

    Is the PDF text selectable?

    The Download PDF button renders each page as a high-resolution image, which keeps the design exact and links clickable. If you need real selectable text (for example for ATS software), use Print and choose “Save as PDF”.

    Where is my data stored?

    Only in this browser’s local storage. Use Export CV Data to keep a backup file, and Clear All Data to erase everything.

    Did I lose something?

    Try Undo (Ctrl+Z). Deleting a section or an item can be undone until you close the tab.
