Biodata Maker Help Documentation

A complete guide to the marriage biodata maker, from the first line to the printed page.

Last Updated: November 3, 2026

1. Getting Started

1.1 What you need

• A modern browser (Chrome, Edge, Firefox, Safari or Opera) with JavaScript enabled, on a phone, tablet or computer
• Site data allowed for zerodataupload.com, so your biodatas are kept between visits
• The details you want on the biodata and, if you like, a recent photo and a picture of the kundli

1.2 How the page is laid out

On a wide screen the form is on the left and the real page on the right, staying in view while you scroll. On a phone the page is under the Preview tab. The pill above shows which biodata is open and whether it is saved; beside it are Your biodatas, Undo and Redo, Help and Download. The tabs Details, Design and Check change what the form shows; the number on Check counts the things to fix.

1.3 Your first biodata in four steps

1. Choose whether it is for a bride or a groom, and the language.
2. Fill in the details, section by section. Next at the end of a section opens the following one.
3. Choose a design under Design.
4. Open Check, fix what it lists, then press Download.

2. Who It Is For and the Language

A new biodata starts with a short box: This biodata is for (a bride or a groom) and Language of the biodata (English, Hindi, Marathi or Gujarati). The first sets the example and the legal age that Check uses (18 for a bride and 21 for a groom). The language can be changed at any time under Design; the headings, labels, title, date, time, height and the choices you picked follow it, and what you typed stays as you typed it. See it filled with an example fills the biodata with a made-up person in that language.

3. Filling In the Details

The details are in seven sections: Personal Details, Horoscope Details, Education and Career, Family Details, About Me, Partner Preferences and Contact Details. Click a section's heading to open or close it; the count beside it shows how many of its lines are filled.

• Typed lines such as the name, the education or the address are printed as you type them.
• Date of birth uses the date box; the age is worked out from it.
• Time of birth is chosen as hour, minute and AM or PM.
• Height is chosen from a list in feet and inches with centimetres; weight is typed in kilograms.
• Choices such as marital status, diet, complexion, family type, Rashi or Nakshatra come from a list and are written in the biodata's language.
• Religion and mother tongue are typed, with suggestions; a known one is translated into the biodata's language.
• About Me takes a few sentences; above 90 words the word count warns that it is long for one page.

Only filled lines are printed. The page beside the form follows every key you press.

4. Lines and Sections

Each line has a menu (the three dots) with:

• Rename on the biodata: a different label, for the current language only. Leave it empty to go back to the usual label.
• Move up and Move down.
• Leave off the biodata: the line leaves the form and the page; Add a line brings it back with what you typed.

Add a line, at the end of each section, lists the lines that start hidden (such as Blood Group, Sub-caste, Kuldevta, Maternal Uncle, Family Values, Devak, Property, Relatives, Other Mobile and the partner's caste) and offers A line of my own, with your own label and value. Each section's own menu renames its heading, moves it, or leaves it off the biodata while keeping what you typed. Add a section adds a section of your own lines with its own heading.

5. The Photo and the Kundli Picture

1. Press Add a photo and choose a picture from the phone or the computer.
2. In the window, drag the photo to move it and zoom with the slider or the mouse wheel; Turn rotates it. With the keyboard, the arrow keys move it (with Shift, further) and plus and minus zoom. Keep the face inside the dashed oval, in the upper half.
3. Press Use this photo. Move and zoom opens the window again later; Change chooses another photo; Remove takes it off, with Undo.

Only the framed picture (600 by 800 pixels) and a smaller copy of the original (at most 1,000 pixels, to frame it again) are kept, both drawn again by the browser, so the camera's details and the place the photo was taken are not in them. Show the photo on the biodata, under Design, turns it off without removing it, and Shape changes its frame. The Kundli line in Horoscope Details takes a picture of the chart, printed beside the horoscope details.

6. Rashi and Nakshatra From the Birth Time

1. Fill in the date and the time of birth in Personal Details.
2. Open Horoscope Details and choose the time zone of the place of birth (India is UTC+5:30).
3. Press Work out. The Rashi, the Nakshatra, the charan, the gan and the nadi are filled in, and a note shows the Moon's place in its Rashi.

The calculation finds the Moon's place among the stars at the moment of birth, with the Lahiri ayanamsa that Indian panchangs use. We checked it for 6,000 birth moments from 1940 to 2026 against an astronomical ephemeris: it agrees to within a minute of birth time. When the birth time is within 20 minutes of a change of charan, the note says so, because a time written down a few minutes off can change the charan. If values were already filled in, they are replaced and a message offers Undo.

Choosing a Nakshatra yourself fills its gan and nadi, and with a charan also the Rashi. The result is for reference: if an astrologer made the family's kundli, keep what the kundli says.

7. Designs and Colours

Design shows the ten designs as small pictures of your own biodata: Royal, Heritage, Mandala, Floral, Kasavu, Arch, Elegant, Modern, Classic table and Minimal. Click one to use it; its colour sets appear under Colours as round swatches. On a phone, the page is under the Preview tab.

Photo sets whether the photo is printed and its shape (as designed, rectangle, rounded, oval, arch or circle). Fonts chooses the design's own fonts, Classic (serif) or Modern (sans serif).

8. The Top of the Page

• Symbol: Shri, Om, Swastik, Kalash, Lotus, Diya, Ik Onkar, Cross, Crescent, Dharma wheel, none, or Your picture (a PNG with a clear background looks best).
• Line at the top: such as Shri Ganeshaya Namah, Shri Ganesh Prasanna, Om Namah Shivaya, Jai Shri Krishna, Jai Shri Ram, Shri Swami Samarth, Shri Gurudev Datta, Jai Mata Di, Jai Jinendra, Namo Buddhaya, Ik Onkar Satgur Prasad, Bismillah, With the blessings of God or With the blessings of our elders, no line, or Type my own.
• Title: Biodata, Marriage Biodata, Bio-Data or Profile in English, and the usual titles in Hindi, Marathi and Gujarati, or Type my own.

Typing a religion in Personal Details sets a fitting symbol and line, until you choose them yourself; a message offers Undo.

9. Text Size, Layout, Dates and Heights

• Fit on one page by itself: the text is made as large as the page allows, between 8 and 12.5 points, and the spacing fills the page. Turned off, a slider sets the size from 8 to 14 points and what does not fit carries on to a second page.
• Lines side by side: When it helps (short lines two to a row when that keeps the text larger), One to a row, or Two to a row.
• Colon between label and value: on or off.
• Date of birth: written out (12 March 1998), with the weekday, or as 12-03-1998 or 12/03/1998.
• Height: 5 ft 4 in, 5'4", 163 cm, or both feet and centimetres.
• Bottom of the page: an optional line, such as More details on request.
• Paper: A4 or US Letter.

The line above the page shows the number of pages, the paper and the text size; the minus, Fit and plus buttons zoom the view without changing the page.

10. Check Before You Share

Check lists, in three groups, what to fix, what to consider and what is already right. Things to fix include a missing name, date of birth or mobile number, a date in the future, an age under the legal age for marriage, a mobile number with the wrong number of digits, an email address that cannot work, a Rashi, charan, gan or nadi that does not go with the Nakshatra, and the example photo or mobile number still in place. Suggestions include a missing photo or one too small to print sharply, a Nakshatra that differs from the birth time, text below 9 points, a second page, a long About Me and a full address on the page. Go to opens the line; a button such as Use Mesha corrects it in one click.

11. Downloading and Sharing

• PDF for printing: opens the print window (see section 12). Sharpest text.
• PDF file: downloads at once, ready to send. Each page is a sharp picture inside the PDF.
• JPG picture: for WhatsApp and status. PNG picture: the best picture quality. A biodata of two pages gives one picture per page.
• Word document: an editable layout of labels and values with the photo at the top, for Microsoft Word or Google Docs.
• Text for WhatsApp: the details as a message with bold headings; Copy puts it on the clipboard.
• Backup file: everything, including the photo, to open again with Open a backup.

Files are named after the person, for example Priya-Deshpande-Biodata.pdf. On a phone, Share sends the JPG, the PDF or the text to another app. No file carries an author name, a program name or the photo's camera details.

12. Printing and Saving as PDF

1. Press Download, then PDF for printing. A short tip shows first; Do not show this again turns it off.
2. In the print window, choose a printer, or Save as PDF under Destination.
3. Set the paper to A4 (or Letter), margins to None, and turn on Background graphics if you see it.
4. Press Print or Save. On a phone, choose Print from the share menu, then save or share the PDF.

Only the biodata is printed, never the rest of the page. Ctrl+P does the same from anywhere on the page.

13. Several Biodatas, Backups and Undo

Your biodatas lists every biodata in this browser with its photo, language, design and when it was last changed. Click one to open it. The copy button makes a copy (for another language, for example) and the bin button deletes one after asking. New blank and New from example start a new one; Open a backup opens a backup file. Delete everything, at the bottom of the window, removes all of them.

Undo and Redo, beside Your biodatas, go back and forward through the last 60 changes of the open biodata.

14. Keyboard Shortcuts

• Ctrl+Z (Cmd+Z on a Mac): undo, outside a text box
• Ctrl+Y or Ctrl+Shift+Z: redo, outside a text box
• Ctrl+P (Cmd+P): print the biodata or save it as PDF
• ?: open the help window
• Left and Right, Home and End on the tabs: move between them
• Up and Down in a menu: move between its items
• Esc: close a window or a menu

Inside a text box, Ctrl+Z and Ctrl+Y undo and redo your typing in that box, as usual.

15. What Is Remembered

The browser's storage on this device holds, under the tool's own name, every biodata with its photo, kundli picture, design and language, which one is open, the zoom and whether the print tip is shown. That storage is not encrypted, and clearing the site's data deletes it. The light or dark theme is shared with the rest of the site. Nothing is kept on a server. When the storage is full, the pill says Not saved: download backup files and delete biodatas you no longer need.

16. Troubleshooting

• The text on the page is small. Leave off a few lines, shorten About Me, or try the Modern or Classic table design, which fit more on a page.
• The biodata runs to two pages. The same: fewer lines or a shorter About Me, or turn Fit on one page back on.
• Hindi, Marathi or Gujarati letters look wrong while typing. Switch the keyboard's language; the page prints what the keyboard types.
• The photo prints blurred. Use a larger photo, ideally straight from the camera rather than saved from a chat.
• The print has white margins or no colours. Set margins to None and turn on Background graphics in the print window.
• Download does nothing. Some browsers block downloads they did not expect; allow downloads for the site, or use PDF for printing.
• Nothing is remembered. The browser blocks site data (some private windows do). Use a normal window, or download a backup file.
