Settings found within the Advanced tab are only available to Teal+ users.

Advanced Styles

In the "Advanced Styles" section, you can select which symbols you'd like to use for your list items (bullets) and heading separators.

Symbol Adjustment Options

Example Selection


Text Sizes

"Text Sizes" allows you to adjust the sizing of different types of text within your resume. For each of the text types, you can change the pt size by either inputting a decimal value (within a set range) or moving the lever left to right.

Body Copy

"Body Copy" refers to content in your resume that is considered the "body" of the resume. This includes your bullet points, contact information, the paragraph in your professional summary, etc.

Primary Heading

"Primary Heading" is the main heading within a resume section. This includes your target title and, depending on your display settings, could be either your company or position title and either your degree or educational institution.

Secondary Heading

"Secondary Heading" is the heading directly below your primary heading. Your display settings will affect what is considered a secondary heading. For example:

  • If you have your experiences displayed with your company name above your position title, your position title would be the secondary heading.

  • If your role title is above your organization, then your organization would be the secondary heading.

Section Titles & Full Name

"Section Titles" and "Full Name" map directly to the same type of resume content as their names.

Minor Copy

"Minor Copy" covers the finer details within your resume. This includes the locations and dates associated with your experiences.


Text Weights

NOTE: Within some of our resume templates, some of the text types are inaccurately mapped. If you are trying to apply a setting to a certain text category and are not seeing any changes take effect, feel free to report the bug to us!

"Text Weights" allows you to control how bold or light the following types of text appear in your resume:

  • Body Copy

  • Primary & Secondary Headings

  • Section Titles

  • Full Name

  • Minor Copy

The text category definitions are similar to that of the "Text Sizes" section. When you click into each of the text types, you'll see a dropdown menu of different text weights you can select from.


Text Transformations

"Text Transformations" covers the capitalization of text within your resume. You can adjust these settings for the following text types:

  • Primary & Secondary Headings

  • Section Titles

  • Full Name

  • Minor Copy

The text category definitions are similar to that of the "Text Sizes" section. For each text type, you'll see three transformation options:

  • As Written: Text is displayed exactly how you have it written in your Resume Builder.

  • All Caps: All alphabetical characters are capitalized, regardless of how the content is written in your Resume Builder.

  • Title Case: The first letter of each word is capitalized, regardless of how the content is written in your Resume Builder.


Vertical Spacing

"Vertical Spacing" lets you customize the spacing between:

  • Sections

  • Section Titles & Content

  • Primary & Secondary Headings

  • Content Blocks

  • List Items


Borders

Within the "Borders" section, you can adjust borders above and below your page header and the border underneath section titles.
