How the Canvas layout is built

What this skin actually changes, compared with the plain document every template starts from.

  • 1A 104px square photo — the largest in the library — set in a 3px white border inside a solid header band.
  • 2That band is your accent colour darkened toward black, bled to the top and side edges, with all header type reversed to white.
  • 3Beneath it a 34/66 split with a 6% accent tint rail on 10px rounded corners.

Why it is built that waySizing the photo this large is a specific decision for work where the face is part of the qualification. Everywhere else on the page the styling stays quiet, so the portrait is unmistakably the feature.

Who the Canvas template is for

Best for: Photography, film and presenting roles where a face belongs on it. It is one of the 32 design-led templates here, built for a human opening the file: portfolio submissions, direct email applications and networking introductions. Two-column and heavily styled layouts are harder for applicant tracking systems to parse, so switch to one of the 40 ATS-safe templates for portal applications — your content carries across untouched.

This layout includes a headshot slot, which is standard on CVs across much of continental Europe and Asia — one of only 5 templates here that has one. Leave it off for US, UK, Canadian and Australian applications, where employers avoid photos to reduce discrimination risk under rules such as those the EEOC enforces.

Canvas at a glance

LayoutTwo columns, with a side rail — one of the 17 two-column templates here
ATS-safeNo — one of the 32 design-led layouts
Headshot slotYes — one of only 5 templates with one
Default accent#0D9488 — changeable to any of the 8 palette colours
Style tags With Photo (5 templates), Creative (29 templates), Two Page (14 templates)
ExportsPDF, Word (.docx) and JPG — all free and unwatermarked

When to choose something else

A large photo makes the document unusable in the US, UK, Canada and Australia, and unhelpful anywhere the face is irrelevant. Portfolio is the two-column creative layout with no photo slot.

Once the wording is done, run the finished document through our free ATS resume checker to score it against the job description you are targeting, or read the resume writing guides for section-by-section help.

Frequently Asked Questions

What makes the Canvas template different from the other 71?

Sizing the photo this large is a specific decision for work where the face is part of the qualification. Everywhere else on the page the styling stays quiet, so the portrait is unmistakably the feature.

Is the Canvas template free?

Yes, entirely. Build your resume in it, preview it live and download the PDF without an account, a trial or a watermark. Nothing is held back behind a payment.

Is the Canvas template ATS-friendly?

This is a creative layout, so it is best for portfolios, direct email applications and human-first review. If you are applying through a large employer's online portal, switch to one of the 40 ATS-safe single-column templates first.

Should I use Canvas or Photo CV?

Canvas is the closest match in the library to Photo CV. Canvas: A large headshot sits in a tinted band above two clean columns — best for photography, film and presenting roles where a face belongs on it. Photo CV: Headshot layout for European CV conventions where a photo is expected — best for germany, France, Spain and much of Europe/Asia. Not for US resumes. You can switch between the two at any point without retyping anything.

What file format do I get?

PDF, Word (.docx) or a JPG image — all three free, all downloaded instantly, none watermarked. PDF is the right default because it keeps your formatting identical on every device and parses reliably in applicant tracking systems; choose Word only when an employer specifically asks for it.
