Preview a design with a real recipient
See the certificate with an actual recipient's name and Attributes before issuing, so long names and missing fields are caught early.
The worst certificate bug is the one you see after 500 emails have gone out: a name that runs off the edge, a missing college field, or a sponsor logo covering the QR code.
Preview with Data shows the design with a real recipient's values before the batch is issued.
What it catches
Switch between recipients and watch the layout change. A long name may wrap onto a second line; a missing Attribute may leave a blank gap; a date or team name may be longer than the sample you designed with. The preview makes those problems visible while the design is still editable.
Open a certificate, choose Design, and use Preview with Data. Pick a recipient from the list, or use the preview controls in the design editor.
A useful test set
Preview the shortest name, the longest name, a recipient with every Attribute filled, and one with an optional Attribute missing. Those four cases catch most overflow and blank-field problems.
What it does not do
Previewing does not issue a certificate or spend a credit. It also does not validate that the recipient should receive a certificate; it shows what the certificate would look like, not whether the person is eligible.
