Transparent PNG — drop it onto an invoice in Excel, or onto Word / PDF. Nothing is uploaded.
Make a Japanese square company seal (kakuin, also called shaban) from a company name and download it as a transparent PNG. Enter a company or shop name (such as a corporate name or trade name) and the characters are laid out on a square seal face instantly, with a live preview. Choose the typeface (serif/Mincho or sans/Gothic), color (vermilion, red, maroon or black), size (21–30 mm square), whether to show the square frame, and the output resolution (DPI) — these style choices are remembered next time, while the company name is never stored. Pick a vertical layout (the traditional square seal) or horizontal, and the characters are arranged into rows and columns automatically by length. The output is a transparent PNG, so you can drop it directly onto an invoice, quotation or delivery note you built in Excel, or onto a Word document or PDF — no scanning a physical stamp, no fiddling with shapes in a spreadsheet. The company name and the generated image are never uploaded or stored (only the style options are kept in your browser). Everything runs locally. Note that this creates the look of a seal image only; it does not register a seal or confer any legal validity.
How to use
- Enter the company or shop name to put on the seal.
- Choose the typeface, color, size, frame and layout (vertical/horizontal) and check the preview.
- Click "Download PNG" and paste the transparent image onto your Excel invoice, Word doc or PDF.
FAQ
Where can I use the seal image?
It's a transparent PNG, so you can place it directly over a cell on an invoice, quotation or delivery note made in Excel, or onto a Word document or PDF. Because it's an image you can resize it, and you can always come back and regenerate the text, color or size.
Is the company name or image uploaded? Is it safe?
No upload. Both the company name you type and the generated seal image are processed entirely in your browser and never sent to a server — fine to use even with a confidential name. Only the style options (typeface, color, size and so on) are saved; the company name is not.
Can I make a round seal (personal / representative seal)?
This tool is for the square company seal (kakuin) only. To make a round seal from a personal name (mitomein, bank seal, registered seal or a round company seal), use the sister tool "Hanko Maker". To stamp directly onto a PDF, see "PDF Stamp / Hanko".
Does this seal have legal validity? Can I register it?
No. This only creates the look of a seal image; it does not register a seal or guarantee any legal effect. It's meant for dressing up the company seal on invoices and for internal documents or templates. For a seal that must be officially registered, have one made and registered through a seal shop.
