Creating a certificate is really easy with our free online certificate maker. You do not need any software and do not need any experience designing awards. You can create certificate templates that look custom-made for free and within minutes. Use our free certificate examples to start and then customize each sample certificate to adapt it to your needs. To see examples of certificates for each category go to the specific category.
Each template for awards has a sample ribbon on it. However, when you open the certificate maker you can change the ribbon. You can choose a different style or color. You can also drag the ribbon to a different place or make it bigger or smaller. There are generic ribbons, first-place ribbons, winner ribbons, etc.
The certificate samples have generic text that you can edit. You can edit the text and the font. You can also move the text around. If you want to create a blank award, then delete the text. To delete text, click on the text you want to delete and then click on the trash can icon.
Each award template has a generic format. However, you can change each format of a certificate by editing the text, changing the font, moving the text, etc. Open the online certificate designer and select any design to use as the initial template. Then go to the award ribbons category. Then click on any ribbon to add it to the template.
To print a certificate, first, download it to your PC. Choose either the image format or the PDF format. You can print certificate templates directly from the certificate designer but many people experience difficulties that they do not encounter when they download the award template and then print it. Certificate printing can be done at home or with a basic printer. However, if you want a more professional look, you might prefer to get it professionally printed. If you use quality paper the printed certificates will look more professional than they will with standard paper. You don’t need special certificate printers just set your resolution to the highest your printer will allow you to print at.
