# The Image Certificate Maker

Making certificates for a large quantity of participants can be a tedious task for an event. This tool automates the process of creating certificates in bulk, saving time and effort.

## Usage
- Clone the repo, and `cd` into it.
- Run `init.sh` to initiate the environment. This installs `uv`, and installs `pillow` as the dependency, and activates the virtual environment.
```bash
chmod +x init.sh
./init.sh
```
- In the repo folder, add a `participants.csv` where the names are listed under the `name` column.
- Add `cert.jpg` or `cert.png` to the folder, depending on which format you want to use.
- Import the font of your liking into the folder, and specify the filename under `font_path = ""`
- Run the script using uv.

For JPEG, Run
```bash
uv run jpeg.py
```

For PNG, Run
```bash
uv run png.py
```

This generates a `certificates` folder.

**NOTE**: If your certificate does not have names right in the center, you might have to adjust the y offset in the script. Moreover, if the name is too long, you might have to modify font sizes as well.

Multithreading ensures that the process is faster.
