Questions
Can I change the border colour?
Yes. Click the border and pick a colour, or change Main and Second under Brand to recolour the whole border.
What size is a certificate?
Most certificates are landscape A4 (297 x 210 mm) or landscape US Letter (11 x 8.5 in). Both are here, and portrait too: change the size and the direction at the top.
Can I make certificates for a whole class or team?
Yes. Open Names, paste one name per line and click Make one certificate per name. Each page is a copy of your design with its own name, and the PDF has them all.
What should a certificate say?
The title (achievement, completion, appreciation), the recipient's name, what it is for, the date, and who signs it. Keep the reason to one line: it reads better framed.
Can I add a gold seal or a wax seal?
Yes. Open Elements and the Seals, ribbons and laurels set: gold and silver foil seals with or without ribbons, wax seals in red, navy, green, gold and black, prize rosettes, laurel wreaths, banners and ornaments. Drag one onto the certificate and resize it.
Can I add a logo and a signature?
Yes. Upload your logo under Brand or drag it in from Uploads. For a signature, sign on white paper, photograph it and add it from Uploads; Remove background takes the paper out.
