How do I edit a resume I have Libre Office? my pc I have dragged and dropped resume but can not edit resume?

I have a resume in my pc I dragged and dropped unto LibreOffice only I cannot edit the text which is my goal!

What’s the file format?

gabix I scanned the resume into my comp was jpeg then another to bumb and into documents.

Do you still have the printed resume? As far as I know, editing the text from a jpeg file would be impossible. But if you could scan the printed version into a .pdf at least, there may be hope of recovering the text and editing it. You’d have to convert it from .pdf to an editable format, and very probably not all of the text would be recognized.

Or there be a web-site somewhere that would convert your jpeg to text. Similarly to scanning your document, you’d probably lose a lot of formatting, and some of your text may not be recognized accurately.

hi dougmn, I have pdf but that is read only right?? so if i scan it to pdf and copy to libreOffice it may be possible??

Thanks

If you google “pdf to text” you will find a number of sites where you can make an editable file from your .pdf document. If you can get it into a .doc or .docx or even .txt you can edit it in libreoffice.
