High density
Compact resume template
Tighter spacing throughout, for when there is genuinely more to say than a standard layout will hold.
Certified limits
The point where the layout engine still keeps every bullet you wrote. One item past each of these, something gets hidden or the page count grows.
| Roles in your work historyMeasured at three bullets each, with four sections | 8 |
|---|---|
| Bullets per roleMeasured across four roles | 7 |
| SectionsA working ceiling. Sections never became the limiting factor in testing | 12 |
| Page ceiling | 2 |
| Columns | One |
Who this suits
- Long histories that would otherwise force content to be hidden
- Anyone who has already cut what can be cut and still needs more room
- Roles where breadth of experience is the argument
Where it is the wrong pick
Worth saying plainly, because a template that suits everyone suits nobody.
- Short resumes, where the tight spacing reads as cramped for no reason
- Anyone who would be better served by cutting older roles than by shrinking the type
What the design actually does
- Reduced section and bullet gaps, staying above the spacing floors the layout engine enforces
- Single column, standard headings
- Density is a CSS property here. The certified limits below do not yet credit it, which is stated plainly on this page
What certified means
Proven by a test
- The content limits below are measured, not estimated. Each is the point where the layout engine still keeps every bullet you wrote.
- One item past each limit, the engine either hides something or needs another page. A test asserts both halves, so a limit cannot be quietly raised.
- Every section type renders: summary, experience, projects, education, skills, certifications, achievements, and anything custom.
- Long company names and long URLs wrap instead of running off the page.
- Nothing but filler sections is ever dropped to make content fit, and roles are never reordered.
Not yet proven
- Pixel-level visual baselines are not yet automated, so a spacing regression would be caught by review rather than by a test.
- PDF text extraction rates are not yet measured per template. The export path is shared by all of them, but that is an argument, not a measurement.
Other certified templates
Limits measured 2026-08-31 against the layout engine, and re-checked on every build. If a limit here stops being true, the build fails before the page can ship.
