Automating Figma Exports:
Manual vs. Plugin
Stop duplicating frames and pasting data one by one. There's a faster way to generate personalized PDFs from Figma.
⚡ TL;DR
The manual process — duplicate frame, paste data, export, repeat — takes forever and is error-prone. PDF Certif automates the entire process: upload a CSV, click generate, and download a ZIP of all your PDFs in seconds.
The Two Workflows
❌ Manual Process
For each person in your list:
- 1 Duplicate the Figma frame
- 2 Find each text layer, paste in the new name/data
- 3 Export the frame as PDF
- 4 Rename the file
- 5 Repeat 100+ times 😩
✓ PDF Certif
For any number of people:
- 1 Open PDF Certif plugin
- 2 Upload your CSV file
- 3 Click "Generate" → download ZIP
