Quick Start

Method 1: Generate from YAML Config

# Generate from config file
python generate_resume.py --config resume_config.yaml --output resume.pdf

# Use specific template
python generate_resume.py --config config.yaml --template modern_blue --output resume.pdf

Method 2: Convert HTML to PDF

# Convert HTML resume to PDF
python scripts/resume_to_pdf.py input.html output.pdf

# Use specific template
python scripts/resume_to_pdf.py input.html output.pdf --template modern

Method 3: Convert HTML/Markdown to Word

# Convert HTML to Word
python scripts/resume_to_docx.py input.html output.docx

# Convert Markdown to Word
python scripts/resume_to_docx.py input.md output.docx --markdown

Method 4: Python API

from scripts.resume_pdf import ResumePDFGenerator

# Create generator
gen = ResumePDFGenerator(theme='modern_blue')

# Add content
gen.add_header(
    name="张三",
    title="高级工程师",
    phone="138-0000-0000",
    email="[e-mail]",
    address="北京市海淀区示例路1号"
)

gen.add_section("工作经历", [
    {
        "title": "高级工程师",
        "org": "某某科技有限公司",
        "period": "2020-至今",
        "detail": "软件开发 · 系统架构设计"
    }
])

# Generate PDF
gen.save("resume.pdf")

Export Methods

1. Direct PDF Generation (ReportLab)

Best for programmatic resume creation from Python:

from scripts.resume_pdf import ResumePDFGenerator

gen = ResumePDFGenerator(theme='modern_blue')
gen.add_header(...)
gen.add_section(...)
gen.save("output.pdf")

2. HTML to PDF Conversion

Best for converting existing HTML resumes:

# Tries multiple PDF backends automatically
python scripts/resume_to_pdf.py resume.html output.pdf

# Supported backends (auto-detected):
# - WeasyPrint (best quality)
# - pdfkit (requires wkhtmltopdf)
# - ReportLab (fallback)
# - FPDF (fallback)

3. Markdown/Word Export

Best for creating editable documents:

# Markdown to Word
python scripts/resume_to_docx.py resume.md output.docx --markdown

# HTML to Word
python scripts/resume_to_docx.py resume.html output.docx

Advanced Usage

Custom Styling

# Use custom colors
gen = ResumePDFGenerator(
    theme='modern_blue',
    primary_color='#1e3a5f',
    accent_color='#2c5282'
)

Multi-page Layout

The generator automatically handles pagination:

• Header repeats on each page
• Smart section breaks
• Balanced content distribution

    python generate_resume.py --config "$file" --output "output/$(basename $file .yaml).pdf"
done

Chinese Characters Not Displaying

pip install python-docx beautifulsoup4
