Designer note: why Archival exists
Archival is the long-form traditional CV - built to hold 6+ pages of academic, medical, or research content without becoming unreadable. Tighter line-height than Minimalist Traditional and stronger typographic hierarchy on subsections.

Archival renders dense academic citations without crowding. The subtle hierarchy keeps long sections scannable.

Questions about the Archival template
Is Archival overkill for a 3-page CV?
Probably. Use Minimalist Traditional under 4 pages. Archival's strength only shows past that length.
