Problem Statement

Currently, Profocto supports exporting resumes (likely in PDF or similar). Many users prefer a Word (.docx) version that they can further edit. Having a “Download as Word” option would greatly enhance flexibility.

Proposed Feature

  • Add an option/button: “Download as Word (.docx)” in the export section.
  • Internally, convert the resume data / HTML template to .docx format (libraries like docx, html-to-docx, Pizzip + Docxtemplater, or server-side conversion)
  • Ensure styling and layout remain as close as possible to the chosen template.

Benefits

  • Users can tweak content in Word (Microsoft Word, Google Docs) after export.
  • Increases usability, especially for hiring platforms that accept .doc/.docx files.
  • Adds flexibility to the tool and makes it more competitive.

Additional Notes

  • The feature should be optional (existing export to PDF should still work).
  • Might require server-side or client-side conversion depending on architecture.
  • Template compatibility needs testing across Word versions.

I’d be happy to implement a PR for this if you like.
