Visitor Pass and ID Badge Printer with Photo and Visit Log

Visitor Pass and ID Badge Printer is an offline app (one HTML file in a zip) for a reception or security desk. You add a person once, choose a photo from a file on your computer, and the app numbers the badge, draws it with the name, company, host and validity dates, and prints it on CR80 card stock (ten to an A4 sheet), on A6, or four A6 badges to an A4 sheet. A log records when each person signed in and out, and badges that expired but were not returned are listed.

The problem it removes: Badges written by hand or typed into a template one at a time look different every day, have no number, are never recorded, and nobody knows which are still out. This app keeps one list, draws every badge the same way and prints a sheet in one go.

What is inside:

• Badge holders numbered VB with the year, kind, company, host, access note, validity dates and status
• A photo chosen from a file on your computer, cropped and shrunk on the device and stored with the record, never uploaded
• CR80 card sheet with ten to an A4 page and cut marks, A6 one per page, and four A6 to an A4 landscape sheet
• A start position for a part used sheet and a shift setting for printers that drift
• Sign in and sign out with the time, a list of who is inside now, and badges expired but not returned
• A button that removes the photos from badges that are finished
• Example data you can load in one click, a Start here guide and an Honest limits panel
• JSON backup and restore, CSV export, and CSV import with a check of every row before anything is added

Who it is for: A receptionist, security officer, office manager or site clerk who issues visitor, contractor, delivery and staff badges and wants a clean printed badge and a record. One person at one computer.

What it is NOT: It does not scan or read an ID document, does not check anyone against a list, does not open a door or program a card, and does not drive a plastic card printer: it prints pages that you cut or put into a card holder. It does not make a badge secure, because paper can be copied. It does not decide who may enter. It is not legal, tax or accounting advice, it is not connected to any government system, bank or messaging service, and it does not file or send anything by itself. UAE e-invoicing is not part of it.

Verified by us: scripted tests in Chromium (104 checks through the real screens: adding, editing and deleting records in every table, required-field messages, backup then clear then restore, CSV export then import, keyboard order, print layouts rendered to PDF, no horizontal scrolling at 375 and 1280 pixels, no network requests) and an independent recalculation by a separately written Python evaluator of 299 calculated values (25 randomised rows plus the example data) with 0 mismatches. Safari engine (WebKit): smoke test passed; Firefox: could not be launched. Not tested: Firefox beyond what is stated here, and no real printer was used (print layouts were checked as PDF).
