I'm keeping my CV in LibreOffice, and generating PDFs from it. Turns out that for the last few years CVs seemingly tend to be parsed automatically by various softwares that extract the information from them and pre-filter them accordingly. And my CV contains a number of keywords that, once turned into a PDF and extracted as text, are broken: for example, "firmware" -> "frmware". This might make my CV useless! Luckily I found the ":-liga" thing and could apply it everywhere. But it took me enough to find this that I was already resigned to move (back!) to Word.</pre> </div> <hr> You are receiving this mail because: <ul> <li>You are the assignee for the bug.</li> </ul> </body> </html>
