For teams that already have a certificate design and a recipient list
The useful workflow is not designing every certificate from scratch. It is keeping one approved PDF template, replacing the recipient details from a spreadsheet, and checking the batch before delivery.
Training and course completion
Generate completion certificates for students, employees, members, or customers after a course, workshop, onboarding program, or compliance session.
Events, conferences, and webinars
Turn attendee lists into participation, attendance, speaker, volunteer, or award certificates without copying names into the design one by one.
HR and internal recognition
Create employee training, safety, induction, service, and recognition certificates from the spreadsheet your team already maintains.
Schools, associations, and agencies
Reuse a branded certificate PDF for recurring cohorts while keeping names, dates, IDs, signatures, and filenames consistent.
How to generate certificates from Excel or CSV in 4 steps
Use one row per recipient and one reusable PDF template. The mapper places the correct spreadsheet values on every certificate and lets you verify the result before the full export.
1. Prepare the recipient list
Keep one person per row. Add clear columns for recipient name, course or award, completion date, instructor, certificate ID, signature URL, verification link, or any other variable detail.
2. Upload the existing certificate PDF
Use the approved design you already have. It can be a fillable PDF or a static PDF exported from Canva, Word, PowerPoint, Illustrator, or another design tool.
3. Map columns and preview real rows
Bind columns to detected PDF fields or place them visually on the page. Preview long names, missing values, unusual dates, signatures, and certificate IDs before generating the batch.
4. Export one certificate per row
Download separate PDFs, package the batch as a ZIP, or create one merged review PDF. Build filenames from columns such as recipient name, course, date, or certificate ID.
Certificate batch features for existing PDF templates
Reusable PDF certificate templates
Keep the logo, signatures, seals, colors, and approved layout in the original PDF while changing only the recipient data for each row.
Excel, CSV, and Google Sheets data
Upload Excel or CSV directly, or use a viewable Google Sheet when the recipient list is maintained collaboratively.
Fillable and non-fillable PDFs
Map columns to existing form fields, or place text, images, QR codes, and barcodes visually on static certificate PDFs.
QR codes and verification links
Create a unique QR code from a URL column or place certificate IDs and verification references on every generated document.
Variable signatures and images
Map image URLs to signature, seal, instructor, sponsor, or program fields when different recipients need different visual assets.
One PDF per recipient
Turn each spreadsheet row into an individual certificate that is ready to email, print, upload, or archive.
ZIP, merged PDF, and filename rules
Export separate files in a ZIP or one combined review PDF, with filenames generated from spreadsheet columns.
Free watermarked preview
Test representative rows without signup before using credits for the final certificate batch.
A repeatable spreadsheet-to-certificate workflow
Use the same mapping for the next course, event, training session, or recognition program instead of rebuilding every certificate.
