Training Certificate Module (PDCertificate): User Guide
Introduction
This module allows a powerful and flexible layout engine, allowing each certificate to be customized in a different way, with layouts ranging from the formal letter to the diploma in landscape format. PDCertificate is aiming to become a full document generator, capable of generating multiple page documents.
It also provides courses chaining so that withdrawal of a certificate by the beneficiary automatically register the student in “next chained” courses, upon a configured role.
Customizable elements of the certificates: Title, logo, frame, background, date, credit of hours, name of the participant, message, educational objective, Date of issue, QR code, illustrations, fields of personalized profiles, activity note, course note..
Adjustment of the precise position of the elements: QR code, margin, watermark, signature, seal or logo.

Time spent by learning partially absent from a training that will be called by the dynamic field {{info:certificate_user_credit_hours}} (in hours) or {{info:certificate_user_credit_days}} (in days)
Explanation of the management rule :
The notions of time and state lock have been separated to remain orthogonal and not mix the features.
overloaded time in certificate management:
if empty fields = resume the duration of the training {{info:certificate_credit_hours}}
if fields not empty display the selected value in {{info:certificate_user_credit_hours}}
Status of certificate if lock : certificate blocked
Example :
In the body of the certificate, use of the shortcode {{info:certificate_user_credit_hours}}
The user was enrolled on a training of {{info:certificate_credit_hours}} hours
and directed {{info:certificate_user_credit_hours}} hours.
