Hi,
Just print out x copies (as many as you have names) of the pdf file (I
assume it's A4), meanwhile setup a Word or similar mail merge to
'place' the certificate recipient's name (with nothing else on the page
and a white back ground). Then refeed the printed certificate pdf
prints through your printer when printing your 'mail merged' sheets.

Cheers

John F
