I actually have an interview, thanks to careers.stackoverflow.com!! Woohoo! The employer just asked me for a copy of my résumé, which is woefully out of date. I'd like to both send them a PDF copy of my CV (I have a PDF print driver), and use that same PDF as a comparison tool for editing my old résumé. I found this question, but when I File-->Print in FireFox, I get a blank page.

    Just write out "I am Batman" on a piece of construction paper in brown crayon. That hasn't failed me yet.

  • @NIfE - Please define "fail" with respect to your comment. I suspect you and I have very, very different perspectives on failure.

  • @Pollyanna: Technically, it hasn't failed for me either. I have a perfect 0/0 success rate.

    @mmyers assuming you define perfect as 100%, 0/0 isn't a perfect success rate, it is a NaN% success rate.

  • @Kip: How can you possibly get more perfect than NaN?

    @mmyers inf% would be the best

  • @AJ - this is now fixed, you should be able to print the employer view tab as well as the public view. Commented Mar 31, 2010 at 3:42

What version of FireFox are you running? Any potentially troublesome extensions? Which page exactly? Obviously it's working for me, but I'd like to investigate anyway.

For the immediate future I suggest printing using IE or Chrome (or Safari, etc.).

  • I'm attempting to print from the Employer View. I'm using FireFox 3.6.2. I will try using the only other browser I'm allowed at work (IE6, blech) and let you know.

  • Same thing in IE6. I must be printing from the wrong page...?

  • @AJ - which page are you trying to print? Commented Mar 30, 2010 at 19:24
  • @Kevin Montrose - attempting to print from the Employer View tab. Am I missing something completely obvious, like the "Print View" tab?

  • @AJ - no, I'm just trying to reproduce the problem, which I now have actually. A quick fix would be to publish your CV (careers.stackoverflow.com/cv/publish), and print that page. You can un-publish it afterwards. Commented Mar 30, 2010 at 19:43
  • @Kevin - that works! I already had my CV published, so it was just a matter of going to the public view URL. It would be nice if we could print from the employer view or otherwise, though. Thanks for your help.

Prints up nice and purty for me on IE8.
