About PDF Certificates

You can create PDF certificates and assign them to certifications. When learners gain a certification with an associated certificate, they can download the PDF (if configured in the certification). Reviewers can print PDF certificates in bulk when reviewing learners' certifications in the Certifications Review page.

PDF certificates can include both static text and images, as well as dynamically generated data related to the circumstances under which they are awarded. You can include fields in PDFs, which the LMS then populates when the certificate is generated. For example, you can include the name of the course, the participant's name, and the date the certificate was awarded. Module and user attributes can also be included. For a list of all fields you can include in a PDF, see Form Fields for PDF Certificates.

For more information about creating PDFs with dynamic form fields, see How to Create Fillable PDF Files on the Adobe Acrobat website.

You can create PDF certificates in Microsoft Word or Adobe Acrobat. You upload them to the LMS Repository and then assign them to certifications. When you configure certifications with PDF certificates, you can specify whether learners are allowed to view and print them. 

Administrators with unrestricted access to the Repository Manager features in System Roles (Manage Features > Manage Features) can upload PDF certificates to the Repository. 

Administrators with unrestricted access to the Certification Manager features in System Roles (Manage Features > Certification Manager) can create and manage certifications.

To assign a PDF certificate to a certification, go to Manage Center > Learning > Certifications and create or edit the certification.
