About this template
Use this crisp Annual Award to name a winner and make it official. It suits competition organisers, schools and clubs, and anyone else who wants the moment to feel official. Look closely and you will notice a bold band of colour, set off by DM Sans lettering in orange. You will also find it under Achievement on CerShare.
Suggested wording
Copy one of these lines into the certificate, then replace the words in brackets.

Awarded to [Name], winner of [Award name], [Year].
This certificate is presented to [Name] for winning [Category] at [Competition].
How to customise it
Every word is editable, from the title to the signature line, including the awarded for the year lines. Text sizes adjust to fit, and you can choose another font for any line. Choose A4, US Letter or A3, in landscape or portrait, and the layout rearranges itself to fit. Colours are yours to change: try Cobalt, or match your own brand colours. You can also upload a logo or a photo and place it anywhere on the page.
Printing tips
Bright white matte paper of 160–200 gsm keeps the colours crisp. In the print dialog choose “Actual size” rather than “Fit”, so the border isn’t cropped. Sign it in blue or black ink once it is printed for a personal touch.
