In addition to the certificate designs provided by Inform Direct, you can upload your own template.


You are able to create your own designs for:

  • Share certificates

  • Member certificates

  • Share option certificates


To help, there are examples attached to this guide for share, share option and member certificate templates that you can download and modify. Please see these at the bottom of the page. 



To create/design your own templates, you will need pdf editing software (such as Adobe Acrobat). Within this software please create your PDF design and then enter 'Form fields' as placeholders for the certificate data to be populated into. 


For example, in Adobe Acrobat this is the 'Prepare a form' option where you can add fields.

 



The fields that can be included in the template are:

  • Logo

  • CompanyName

  • CertificateNumber

  • NumberOfShares

  • ShareHolder

  • Body

  • DateOfIssue

  • Footer


For any additional free text fields, the name needs to start with "Sign_". 


To add a field for the name of the Director, you would need to name it Sign_Director.



The 'Body' and 'Footer' field contains our standard information in these fields (example below).


Body




Footer






Once you have your template get in touch with us and we'll upload it to your account so that you can use it in the same way as our other certificate templates.
