Can I edit my resume after downloading it?
The editor stays open after you download, so you can fix a typo. If saving is refused you will see a message asking you to download again to keep the current version.
A download is a checkpoint, not the end. Spotting a mistake in the PDF should not mean rebuilding the resume from scratch, so the editor stays usable.
If something goes wrong
"This resume was already downloaded, so changes cannot be saved yet. Download it again to keep the current version."
WhySaving is refused on a resume already marked as downloaded.
FixPress Download again. That keeps the version now on screen. It counts towards the limit of 5 downloads on that resume.
My edits disappeared when I reloaded
WhyThey never reached the server because saving was refused.
FixMake the changes again and download, rather than reloading first.
I want a clean copy to keep editing
WhyYou would rather not spend downloads on drafts.

Does re-downloading cost another credit?
No. The resume is already unlocked. Only the count of 5 downloads applies.
Can I change the template after downloading?
You can change it on screen, but the PDF is built from the saved version, so re-download to get the new design as a file.
