I never saw resume/staffing sites doing that (even though most of those sites are usually pretty bad technically). This would be very ugly and unreadable. PDF is reasonable (see the Answer by Griff), HTML is better. I tell you, if you do images, your customers will avoid using it — very inconvenient.

By the way, don't tell me this is to keep source resume in secret. It won't work.

I question if you really need it, but you are not trying to explain that you do and why.

You can store it as a PDF, and then show the PDF.

It makes sense, a 5. HTML is always a better option though.

Actually, I decided to add my Answer to try to explain why not image.
