Quarto resume template
Your career as a book — chapters in roman numerals.
Quarto turns your resume into a beautifully bound book: a title-page header with your name and a theme rule, then each section opens as a numbered chapter — Chapter I, Chapter II — with a theme-colored drop cap on the chapter title. Your summary gets its own drop-cap preface. For readers, it is delightful; for you, it frames a career as a story with real structure.

Will Quarto pass applicant tracking systems?
Single-column with real text parses well. Chapter titles include the section name (e.g. "Experience") alongside the numeral, so parsers detect them.
Every Cvyon template exports through your browser's print-to-PDF, so the text layer stays selectable and searchable — the thing parsers actually read. After downloading, run your resume through our free ATS grader to confirm it scores well before you apply.
04 — FAQ
Questions about the Quarto template
Will ATS recognize "Chapter I" as Experience?
Chapter titles pair the numeral with the plain section name, so parsers see "Experience" normally.
Is Quarto too playful for serious roles?
It is literary rather than playful — best for fields that value narrative and intellect.
Do the drop caps affect text selection?
No — they are styled first letters of real, selectable text.
