Summary description: ATS-safe customizable LuaLaTeX template for modern
resumes/CVs
Announcement text:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Hello, CTAN community,
There is no shortage of résumé templates. Some call themselves ATS-friendly,
many don't bother, and few check. Yet a single job posting can draw hundreds of
applications, and automated parsers decide what a human sees first. A résumé
that looks good but is read back as a set of fused words, stray icon
characters, or orphaned dates may never be noticed.
Lucid CV (lucidcv) is a LuaLaTeX class that treats machine readability as a
tested property rather than an assumption. Its design is inspired by PlushCV
(https://github.com/cystema/PlushCV), with a replaced custom backend developed
based on a Python test harness that builds the PDF and reads it back with
several extraction engines. The harness checks that:
- word gaps are real space characters,
- icons extract as nothing,
- every phrase comes back intact and in document order,
- the PDF is the PDF/A-2b it claims to be.
The class was developed against these tests, and each extractor failure that
appeared along the way was fixed in the class.
It supports single- and two-column layouts, a compact mode, and colors, fonts
and spacing that can be customized directly in a document without touching the
class and breaking machine parsing.

Feedback, bug reports and unexpected failing PDF parsers are warmly welcome.
