I think you can open PDFs in libreoffice and edit them, although you have to manually reexport as pdf when you're done

If you're applying somewhere that's annotating the file instead of printing it out and writing on it in pen, they should be able to buy an enterprise license for some PDF editor or other. Or the knowledge to find a free PDF editor somewhere.

Yes, you can. But it's not made for that and you shouldn't. And is that process lossless?

Dunno. Maybe there's a flag and the other side uses MS office too, follows that flag. But at least keep a copy, if you send as docx.

I see for past experience you put :

CREATE TABLE Resume (
    Field VARCHAR(255) PRIMARY KEY,
    Value VARCHAR(255)
);

INSERT INTO Resume (Field, Value) VALUES
('Experience_1_Title', ''),
('Experience_1_Company', ''),
('Experience_1_Years', ''),
('Experience_1_Description', '.'),
('Experience_2_Title', ''),
('Experience_2_Company', ''),
('Experience_2_Years', ''),
('Experience_2_Description', '.'),
('Skills_1', ''),
('Skills_2', ''),
('Skills_3', ''),
('Skills_4', ''),
('Education_Degree', ''),
('Education_Years', '),
('References', '');

SELECT Field, Value FROM Resume;

-- Bonus Query: Show my most "impressive" skill
SELECT Value FROM Resume WHERE Field = 'Skills_1';

-- Another Bonus: My career trajectory
SELECT Field, Value FROM Resume WHERE Field LIKE 'Experience%';`___`
