One list, one file
Paste a class register or a list of attendees and you get a single PDF with one certificate per page — not thirty files to open and print individually. Every page uses the same layout, so a stack of them looks like a set.
Duplicate names are removed and the count is shown before you download, because a register copied out of a spreadsheet usually has a few repeats and one blank line at the end.
Names that do not fit
The recipient’s name is the largest text on the page and the one thing that cannot be predicted. A fixed size suits "Li Wei" and runs "Bartholomew Featherstonehaugh-Wellington" straight off the edge — and in a batch of thirty, nobody checks every sheet.
So the name is measured against the space available and set smaller if it needs to be. If it still will not fit at a readable size, it wraps onto a second line rather than being cut off. The same applies to the heading and the reason.
Printing it
Landscape A4, which is what certificate paper and frames expect. Print at 100% rather than "fit to page" — scaling moves the border in from the edges and the result no longer sits properly in a frame.
Heavier paper makes more difference than anything on screen. 160gsm or above feels like a certificate; ordinary 80gsm printer paper feels like a letter, whatever is printed on it.
Frequently asked questions
Can I make certificates for a whole class at once?
Yes. Switch to a list of names, paste one per line, and you get a single PDF with one certificate per page. Duplicates and blank lines are removed automatically.
What happens with a very long name?
It is measured and set smaller so it fits, and wrapped onto a second line if it still will not. It is never cut off at the edge, which is the failure that ruins a batch nobody proofreads.
Is there a watermark?
No, and no account or export limit. What you download is what you designed.
What paper size is it?
Landscape A4. Print at 100% rather than "fit to page", or the border moves in from the edges and it will not sit right in a frame.
Are the names uploaded?
No. The PDF is built in your browser, which matters when the list is a class register with children’s names on it.
