Course handouts and certification PDFs

Generate course handouts and certification PDFs from HTML templates.

When a learner clicks “Complete module,” you want two things to happen instantly:

  1. A branded certificate slides into their inbox, ready to share on LinkedIn.
  2. A printable workbook drops into their downloads so they can revise offline.

With ScreenshotOne’s PDF Generation API, both files are created on‑the‑fly—no manual design work, no waiting for batch jobs.

How it works

  1. Design once in HTML/CSS Build a certificate or workbook page with your logo, colors, and dynamic placeholders ({{name}}, {{course}}, {{date}}, etc.).

  2. Call the API when the learner finishes

    Terminal window
    curl -X POST https://api.screenshotone.com/take \
    -d '{
    "url": "https://example.com/certificate",
    "format": "pdf",
    "access_key": "<your access key>"
    }'
  3. Deliver immediately Pipe the returned PDF to email, cloud storage, or a “Download workbook” button in your UI.
