The tool places a standard copy certification stamp template on a selected page of a PDF document, including the word 'True', job title, signature field, and date. This allows you to quickly prepare a visual layout for subsequent manual certification of the document by an authorized person and the affixing of the organization's seal.

When this is useful

An accountant needs to certify a copy of a tax return for a counterparty and must pre-print the certifying person's details. Or an HR specialist needs to prepare a template copy of a work record book, already bearing the 'Certified Copy' inscription, so the director only needs to provide a real signature.

Step-by-step instructions

  1. Upload the source PDF file to the service interface.
  2. Enter the certifying person's job title, surname and initials, and the actual certification date in the corresponding fields.
  3. Specify the page number where the stamp should appear and start the generation, then download the modified document.

How to verify the result

Open the downloaded PDF and check that the stamp is placed on the specified page and does not overlap key text fragments. Ensure all entered data (title, name, date) is displayed correctly and without typos. If necessary, you can repeat the operation with different parameters.

Important limitations

The added template does not automatically make the copy legally certified. To give it legal force, the handwritten signature of the specified person and, in established cases, the organization's seal are required. The service only creates a blank, saving time on text formatting.
