About this tool

Courses, clubs, schools and workplaces all hand out certificates, and the usual options are a clip-art template or an expensive design tool. Both take longer than the task deserves.

This generator lays out a landscape A4 certificate with a double border, the title in small caps, the recipient's name large and centred, the citation beneath it, and two ruled lines at the foot for the date and an authorised signature. It prints beautifully on plain or heavy paper.

What it's good for

  • Awarding certificates at the end of a training course.
  • Recognising a volunteer or long-service contribution.
  • Issuing school or club achievement awards.
  • Producing a completion certificate for a workshop.

Questions people ask

Can I add a logo or seal?
Yes — place it afterwards with Add Image to PDF.
Can I make several at once?
Run the generator once per recipient, then combine them with Merge PDF.
Will it print full bleed?
The border sits inside the printable area so nothing is cut off.
