Certificate Maker

Certificate Maker prints a certificate for a school event, a competition, a workshop or course, a sports day, a volunteer drive or a staff award. Choose the kind — participation, achievement, completion or appreciation — and the title and wording start from a standard sentence such as “This is to certify that {name} participated in {event}.” Type the person’s name and what the certificate is for, and they are filled in, with the name set large. Change the wording freely: {name} and {event} are filled in wherever you put them, and wording you have written is never replaced when you change the kind. Add who is giving it, the date and place, a certificate number if you keep a register, and up to two signatories with their roles; each gets a line to sign on. Choose a template and paper size, then print on card or save as a PDF. Save a draft and change only the name to make the next one.

1. Choose the kind of certificate; edit the title if you like.
2. Type the person’s name and what it is for (“the Inter-School Science Quiz 2026”).
3. Add your school, company or organisation, the date and, if you keep a register, a number.
4. Add one or two signatories with their roles.
5. Print or save as PDF. For a batch, save a draft and change the name each time.

• Certificates are printed portrait, on A4 or Letter. Logos, seals and signatures are added by hand or stamped on the printed copy.
• Each certificate is made one at a time; there is no mail merge from a list.
• This makes a document, not a credential: whether it carries weight depends on who issues and signs it.
• Names and details stay in this browser; nothing is uploaded. Drafts are kept only when you press Save draft, on this device.

The person’s name, the event, who organised it and the date, signed by someone responsible — the principal, coordinator or head of department. The standard wording covers that; add the class or team after the name if you like.

Yes. Edit the wording box. Put {name} and {event} where the name and the event should go; anything else is printed as you type it.

Choose the paper size your card stock is, print a test on plain paper first, and in the print dialog set margins to Default and scale to 100%.

Make the first one and Save draft. Then change only the name and print each; the rest stays the same.
