Do's and Don'ts

Do's	Don'ts
Test the printing layout on plain paper before using expensive certificate stock.	Hardcode student names in the "Template". ALways use `[variables]`.
Ensure "Student Photos" are uploaded in high resolution for clear ID cards.	Forget to include the "Principal Signature" image in the template.
