This allows you to make changes almost instantly, and to store different drafts on disk. Word processing and desktop publishing systems also give you many different options that a typewriter does not, such as boldfacing for emphasis, different fonts or typefaces and justified margins. The end result, however, will be largely determined by the quality of the printer you use. A dot matrix printer is inappropriate for a resume because the type is much rougher than that of a typewriter. You need at least letter quality type.
Laser printers provide the best quality lettering from a computer.
Typing Household typewriters and office typewriters with nylon or other cloth ribbons are not acceptable for typing your resume you will have printed. No matter how much money you paid to have your resume written or typeset, you are the only one who will lose if there is a mistake. So proofread it as carefully as possible. Get a friend to help you read your draft aloud as your friend checks the proof copy. Then have your friend read aloud while you check.
