My resume is not plain text..?

If it's encrypted, no one can read it, and thus it cannot be transcribed without a key file.

If a person can read the words, it can be transcribed and reduced to an unformatted string, including an amount of white-space padding.

If the information on your resume cannot survive a reduction to plain text, and still remain relevant, something is wrong, because that's the premise of a resume: to standardize job applicants.
