This is really non-responsive to your actual question, but I have never
understood this fixation on "professional resume".  I occasionally hire people
for various jobs (and finding and hiring the right person for a job is a task
that I hate, frankly) and it's my opinion that a person's qualifications speak
for themselves.

A qualified and experienced person can get a job with a resume printed on a
9-pin dot matrix printer.  An unqualified person won't get the same job if
his resume is printed on 60-lb linen on an offset press.

I get lots of resumes printed on hot pink paper and expensive bond and you
name it.  A hand-written resume on foolscap with the proper experience listed
wins the race every time.

An indirect answer to your actual question is, have you looked at Scribus?  I
use it to create plates for offset presses -- it provides far more control over
every aspect of your production than you can possibly get with OpenOffice.  I
wouldn't write a memo with Scribus but I wouldn't try to prep a professional
printing job with OpenOffice either.  The right tool for the job and all that,
you know.  (Take a look at my website under Now Playing for an example of a
flyer that is created with Scribus, if you're interested.)
