Certificate Maker

Enter a recipient and a text to make an award, completion, appointment, thank-you or children's praise certificate, then print it or save it as PDF or PNG. Use it to make certificates for many people at once for a school, club or event.

How to use

1. Under "Type", choose "Award", "Completion", "Appointment", "Thank-you" or "Praise (children)".
2. Enter the "Recipient", "Date", "Presenter's title" and "Presenter's name". Write the "Text" yourself or pick one from "Example texts".
3. Under "Design", set the "Border", "Colour", "Font", "Paper" and "Orientation", and add a seal or signature image and a logo if you want.
4. For several people, write one name per line under "Many recipients at once". Then press "Print", "Save as PDF" or "Save as PNG".

How it works

• There are 10 borders, and 30 example texts across the five types. Write {name} in the text to insert the recipient's name.
• Up to 200 pages can be made at once, and the last number in "Number" goes up by one per page. Paste two columns (name, text) from a spreadsheet to give each person their own text.
• Your entries and the seal and logo images are saved in this browser on this device.
• This is for celebrations and events. Do not make degrees, licences, official documents or anything that could pass as formal proof.

Questions and answers

What should I write on a certificate?

A common pattern is a line such as "This certificate is presented to", the name, and a short reason, for example "for outstanding performance in this year's competition". Pick an example text and change it to fit.

Can I make certificates for a whole class at once?

Yes. Write one name per line under "Many recipients at once"; one page is made per person and saved together as one PDF. Several PNG images are saved in a ZIP file.

Why is the border cut off when I print?

In the print dialog, choose scale "Actual size (100%)" and margins "None".
