Death poster maker (श्रद्धांजलि पोस्टर with photo)
A death poster is the single image a family shares to say that someone has passed away: a photo, the name, the dates and one line of prayer. This death poster maker builds it in your browser in about two minutes, and you only pay when the preview looks right.
Designs that suit a death poster
How to make a death poster
- Pick a design. Plain cream and white designs read best on a phone; dark designs suit a tribute for status
- Upload a clear, front-facing photo and crop it to the face
- Type the name, the date of birth and the date of passing
- Choose a ready prayer line or write your own
- Add the family name and one contact number, then download
What to write on a death poster
- Heading: भावभीनी श्रद्धांजलि, शोक संदेश, Rest in Peace or Om Shanti
- The full name, with स्वर्गीय / Late before it
- Birth and death dates, or only the date of passing
- One short line of prayer or remembrance
- शोकाकुल परिवार (grieving family) with names
Poster, card or banner: which one do you need?
People use the three words for the same image. A poster or card is the portrait image sent on WhatsApp and printed on A4. A banner usually means a large flex print for the home or the prayer hall. The download here is A4 at print quality, so a print shop can enlarge it for a small banner, and the PDF in the zip is the file to give them.
For a death anniversary
For a first-year or yearly remembrance, change the heading to पुण्यतिथि, Barsi or Death Anniversary and keep the rest the same. If people are invited to a prayer or a meal, switch on the prayer section and add the date, time and place.
