What is the best Adobe software for designing a résumé?
I have been creating my CV with Photoshop for several years now. I've heard and seen it myself, that this is not the right tool at all to design a résumé.I never used the other tools from the Adobe suite, but I'm thinking of InDesign, Illustrator, Fireworks. From previous experience, I have identified these requirements, I need: - to define a structure/skeleton from the beginning; - to draw squares, rectangles, shadings just like on Photoshop; - to easily use percentages to divide my document; - to move one part of the document and to see the other one follow. For example, I move down the header, so all the rest below will move down as well; - to manage text alignments easily; - to use lists; - to perfectly align blocks; - to output a very light PDF file.Which software will best satisfy the needs I have listed above?Which software would you recommend to me for creating a curriculum vitae?
I'd use AdobeIndesign primarily. That way you can set up a master template for your resume/cover letter/references. You might need to use Illustrator to create some more complex graphics or photoshop to edit images- but InDesign will be your main base.
