CertGen is a PHP-based web application designed to generate multiple certificates efficiently. This application allows users to upload a certificate template image, a CSV file containing names, and a font file for customization. It then generates individual certificates by overlaying names onto the template image, creating a downloadable zip file containing all the generated certificates.
- Bulk Certificate Generation: Upload a certificate template image and a CSV file with names to generate multiple certificates at once.
- Customization Options: Adjust overlay height, font size, and font color to customize the appearance of the generated certificates.
- Font Support: Upload TrueType (.ttf) or OpenType (.otf) font files for personalized text styling.
- Efficient Processing: Automatically centers text overlays on the certificate template image for a professional look.
- Zip Archive Download: Download a zip file containing all the generated certificates for easy distribution.
- Setup Environment: Ensure your server environment supports PHP.
- Upload Files: Fill out the form by uploading the certificate template image, CSV file with names, and font file. Adjust customization options as needed.
- Generate Certificates: Click on the "Generate Certificates" button to initiate the certificate generation process.
- Download: Once the generation process completes, download the zip file containing all the certificates.

- Image Requirements: Ensure that the certificate template image is in either JPEG or PNG format.
- CSV File Format: The CSV file should contain a single column with names to be included on the certificates.
- Font Selection: Choose a font file that best suits the style and design of your certificates.
- File Extraction: If needed, use tools like Breezip to unzip the downloaded zip file.
- Visitor Count: The application keeps track of the number of visitors accessing the system.
- Certificate Count: It also tracks the total number of certificates generated.
- Temporary Files: Temporary files are stored in a directory named
temp_<timestamp>, which is cleaned up after certificate generation.
