If you have a certificate design ready and want to use it for the certificates you issue using Certopus? Let's learn how to use an existing design for your certificates in Certopus. Follow these easy steps to get started:
Make sure you have selected the recipient category where you want to design the certificate. In the Credential Design section, click on the first option that says Select Certificate Design.
Click on YOUR CUSTOM DESIGN button on the top-right corner.
You will see a blank certificate canvas in the certificate editor. Click on the Change Layout button from the menu at the bottom to configure the layout of your certificate if you want to.
Select page size and orientation.
Once you are set with the layout of the certificate, click on the Change Background button from the menu at the bottom to upload your custom design for the certificate.
Click on the Import Images button to upload your certificate background design here.
Upload the background image in SVG/PNG/JPG format (We highly recommend SVG without any raster image embedded in it for optimum pixel-perfect results) with the aspect ratio of the page layout that you set previously. Once it is imported, select it and click on the USE AS BACKGROUND button
Make sure in the design, that you have left blank spaces for variables/attributes that you will place from Certopus editor.
Arrange and style variables in your design and save your design by clicking the SAVE button on the top-right corner.
