CelebriCards Help Documentation

A complete guide to CelebriCards, from the first detail to the printed card.

Last Updated: November 12, 2026

1. Getting Started

CelebriCards has four tabs: Details (what the card says), Design (how it looks), Edit (changes on the card itself) and Check (what to fix before sending); on a phone a fifth, Preview, shows the card. On a wide screen the card sits beside the form and follows every change; what you see is what you get in the pictures, the PDF and the video. Download, Video and Share are in the bar at the top, with Undo, Redo and the name of the invitation, which opens your list of invitations.

2. Occasions

A new invitation starts with the question What are you inviting people to? Pick one of 15 occasions: Wedding, Engagement, Reception, Save the date, Anniversary, Birthday, Baby shower, Naming ceremony, Thread ceremony, Housewarming, Puja or religious event, Festival party, Party or get-together, Office or public event, or Greeting card. The card fills in with example words at once, in a design made for that occasion. Change, next to the occasion, switches to another; names and dates you typed stay.

3. The Details

Under Names (or Who and what), type the names: for a wedding the bride's and groom's names and their parents; for a birthday whose birthday it is, the age and the host; for a puja its name and the host; for a greeting card the greeting, to whom, the message and from whom. Until you type your own, the card shows examples, and the box shows the example in a pink grey hint. The count beside each section shows how many boxes are filled.

4. Functions, Dates and Places

Each function or event has a date, a start time, an optional end time, a venue and an address or city; a wedding's functions can also carry a dress code and a note. Choose the time with the hour, minute and AM or PM boxes. A wedding or engagement can have every function: press Ganesh Puja, Haldi, Mehendi, Sangeet, Tilak, Engagement, Baraat, Wedding, Reception, Cocktail Party, Dinner or Other to add one (up to 20), give it a name of your own if you like, move it up or down, or remove it. Other occasions can add another date or place. When the dates are out of order, Sort by date puts them in order.

5. Wording, Blessing and Symbol

• Who is inviting: for a wedding or engagement, The families invite, The couple invites or My own words, used on the Invitation page.
• Between the names: and (an ampersand), weds, with, or a heart.
• Your message: optional; Ideas offers ready lines for the occasion. Left empty, the line shown in grey is printed.
• Date style: such as Saturday, 12 December 2026, or 12 . 12 . 2026, or Saturday, the twelfth of December; and whether the time is written as onwards.
• Blessing and symbol: a line at the very top (14 ready lines for many faiths, or your own) and a symbol above the names: Om, Shri, Shri with lines, Swastik, Kalash, Lotus, Ik Onkar, Cross, Crescent, Dharma wheel or Diya.

6. RSVP, Map and More Lines

Under RSVP and map, type the contact names, the phone and a reply-by date. For a map QR code, open the venue in your map app, choose Share, copy the link and paste it into Map link: the RSVP page prints a QR code that opens it, and the message and calendar file carry it. CelebriCards makes no map link itself. Under More lines, an occasion can add a dress code, a line from the little ones, With best compliments from, a hashtag and a note about gifts.

7. Photo and Guests

Under Photo, add a couple photo, the birthday star or the new home: it goes on the cover in the design's frame, or in a circle, arch, rounded, oval or heart frame. Position lets you drag and zoom it inside its frame. Under A card for each guest, paste the guest list, one name per line (up to 300), and choose the words before the name (Dear, unless you type your own). Show the first name on the card now previews it; Make the cards opens the window to make them all or one by one.

8. Languages

Choose English, Hindi, Marathi or Gujarati for the printed words. The fixed words (such as Wedding Invitation, the function names and the RSVP lines), the dates and the times change to that language; Digits chooses local or English digits. The designs switch to fonts made for that script. Names and messages are printed as you type them, so type them in that language with your keyboard set to it.

9. Design: Size, Designs, Colours and Fonts

• Size: Card 5 x 7 in, Phone screen (9 : 16), A5, A6 postcard, Square, or Card 7 x 5 in wide.
• Design: the designs for your occasion, or All 28, each shown as a small card with your own words.
• Colours: the design's colour sets, or your own colour for the paper, the words, the names and lines and a second colour.
• Fonts: for headings, names and other words, from 14 fonts.
• Background picture: a photo behind the whole card, softened so the words stand out.

Switching design puts anything you moved back in the new design's places; words you typed over stay.

10. Pages

Under Pages in Design: for a wedding or engagement, an Invitation page with the full wording; for several functions, a page for each, all on one page, or only listed on the cover; and an RSVP page with the RSVP lines and the map QR code. The PDF and the video have every page; pictures come one per page.

11. Editing on the Card

Click anything on the card to choose it: a bar above it offers Edit words, Style, Copy, Hide or Delete, and More. Drag to move it (guides show the centre), drag a corner to resize it, drag the side handles to make words narrower or wider, and drag the round handle to turn it (with Shift, in steps of 15 degrees). Double-click words to type on the card. In the Edit tab, the chosen item's font, size, colour, bold, italic, capitals, alignment, letter and line spacing, effect (gold foil, glow, shadow or outline), see-through and turn can be set; a photo has Position, a shape and a border. On this page lists everything on the page, with buttons to show, hide, lock and unlock each one, and the paper colour.

12. Adding to the Card

The Edit tab adds Words, a Heading, Script words, a Photo, a Picture (symbols, pictures, dividers, corners, borders, frames and patterns, drawn in the card's own colours), a Shape (line, rectangle, circle, heart or star), a Divider in the design's style and a QR code (the map link from Details, a phone call to the RSVP number, or any link or words). Things you add are your own: they do not follow the details, and Forward and Back move them in front of or behind each other. A page holds up to 60 of them.

13. Check

Check lists what to fix before sending: example words still on the card, dates that have passed, functions without a time or out of date order, a phone number with an unusual number of digits, a missing map link for the RSVP page, words too small to read, words too close in colour to what is behind them, words off or near the edge of the card, words on top of each other, a photo that may print blurred, and words typed over that no longer follow the details. Each note has a button that goes to the right box or item. The number on the Check tab counts the things to fix.

14. Downloads

• Pictures (JPG or PNG): one per page, in a zip when there are several.
• PDF to share: all the pages in one file.
• A card for each guest: all as PDFs in one zip, all as pictures in one zip, or one by one.
• Message with the details: to copy into a chat or share.
• Calendar file (.ics): every function with a date, so guests can save the dates.
• Backup file: the invitation with its photos.

When example words are still on the card, a question asks before the file is made. Pictures and PDFs carry no author, tool name or date inside.

15. Printing

PDF for printing makes every page at 300 dots per inch. One card per page is the card's own size; several on an A4 sheet fits as many cards as A4 holds, either way round, with cut marks between them. Bleed lets the background run 3 mm past the edge for a print shop, and Cut marks show where to cut. Print at 100% (actual size), not fit to page. The phone screen and square sizes are made for phones; choose 5 x 7 in or A5 for paper.

16. The Video Invitation

Press Video. The window plays a preview while you choose the time on each page (3, 4, 5 or 7 seconds), how the words come in (Rise, Fade or Zoom), what falls over the card (Suits the design, None, Rose petals, Marigold petals, Confetti, Sparkles, Snow, Hearts or Soft lights), your own song (an MP3 or M4A of up to 50 MB, which fades in at the start and out at the end) and the quality (Full HD or HD, a smaller file). Make the video draws every frame on your device at 30 frames a second, with the pages fading into each other; Stop ends it. Then Download, Share or Change and make again.

17. Your Invitations and Backups

The invitation's name in the bar opens Your invitations: keep one for each event (up to 100), each with its own details, design and photos. New invitation starts another, Open a backup opens a backup file, and each invitation's menu offers Rename (only for your list), Make a copy and Delete. A backup file holds one invitation with its photos; every value in an opened backup is checked before it is used.

18. Limits

This browser keeps up to 100 invitations. One invitation holds up to 20 functions, dates and places, 30 photos and pictures (each opened from a file of up to 50 MB and 100 megapixels, and kept at 1,600 pixels on the long side, or 2,000 for a background) and up to 300 guest names. A page holds up to 60 things added by hand. A line of the details holds up to 300 characters and the message up to 2,000. A song for the video can be up to 50 MB and a backup file up to 100 MB; a zip of guest cards stops at 1,000 MB.

19. Keyboard and Accessibility

• The keys work while you use the tool (the focus is in it, or nothing has the focus and the tool is on the screen): Ctrl+Z and Ctrl+Y undo and redo, the arrow keys move the chosen item (with Shift further), Delete removes or hides it, C copies it, Enter types on it (Ctrl+Enter to finish, Esc to cancel), Esc lets go of it and ? opens the help.
• Every button and box can be reached with Tab; menus move with the arrow keys; changes are announced to screen readers.
• With reduced motion on in your device, the page's own animations are switched off.

20. Privacy and Your Data

Everything you type and every photo you add stays in this browser and is never sent to a server; the pictures, PDFs and video are made here. Your invitations are kept in this browser's storage under one entry named for this tool, and their photos in a small database of its own; neither is made until you change something. Invitations from the original CelebriCards app, if this browser has them, are brought over once. Like every page on ZeroDataUpload, this page shows ads; the Privacy Policy explains them.

21. How It Was Checked

Before this page was published, the engine behind the tool was checked: 46,519 cases in 15 groups. Dates, times and numbers in the four languages were compared with a separate program written from the same rules; the PDFs, pictures, zips, calendar files and videos were read back by other programs; every QR code printed on a card was read back by two QR readers; saved and opened invitations made to break the tool were checked value by value; and the layout of every occasion, design, size and language was checked to keep the words on the card. Then the page was tried at four screen widths in both themes, with every tab, every download, long and hostile words, many functions, many guests and many pages.

22. Troubleshooting and Support

• The card still shows example words. Type your own in the boxes with pink grey hints; the Check tab lists each one.
• Hindi, Marathi or Gujarati letters show as boxes in the form. The device has no font for that script in its own text; the card itself uses the tool's fonts.
• There is no map QR code. Paste the venue's map link under RSVP and map, and turn on the RSVP page in Design.
• A photo does not open. It is not a picture the browser can read, or it is over 50 MB or 100 megapixels; the message says which.
• The video has no music. This browser could not read the song or add music; try an MP3, or another browser.
• My invitations are gone. They are kept per browser and device; a private window or cleared browser data starts afresh. Open a backup file to bring one back.
