Price List & Product Catalogue Maker (PDF and WhatsApp Images)

About the Price List & Product Catalogue Maker (PDF and WhatsApp Images)

Make a price list, rate card, product catalogue or menu card from your products or services — name, code, photo, unit, price, offer price, category and whether the price includes tax. Type them, paste them from a spreadsheet, or import a CSV or Excel sheet; add a photo to each product, or many at once matched by file name. Choose a list, a grid of photos or a menu card, add your logo, colour and contact details, a validity line, a note and a payment QR code (your UPI ID in India, or your own payment or ordering link).

The catalogue comes out as a print-ready PDF (A4, US Letter or A5) and as square posts (1080 × 1080) and stories (1080 × 1920) for WhatsApp and Instagram, each picture with your business at the top and your contact line at the foot. Prices print exactly as you type them — the page only puts your currency sign in front — and it never works out tax: it can say that prices include, or do not include, the tax you name. Photos are made smaller on this device, and a product without one gets a plain placeholder.

Without a pass the catalogue is a free preview: every page and picture shows at preview size, marked, with the payment code spoiled; the PDF, printing and the pictures unlock with a Premium pass. Your products, photos and the list itself are yours: they stay in this browser and save as a file or a CSV at any time.

Common uses

• A shop, bakery or restaurant sharing its prices on WhatsApp and Instagram as pictures, and printing the same list for the counter.
• A wholesaler or distributor sending a product catalogue with codes, units and offer prices to retailers.
• A salon, tutor, photographer or repair service publishing a rate card of services.
• A café or cloud kitchen making a menu card from a spreadsheet that it updates every month.

Layouts and sizes

• List: one product a row — the photo, the name, the code and unit, the description, and the price on the right.
• Grid of photos: cards with a large photo, two or three across on paper and two across in the pictures.
• Menu card: names and prices joined by dotted leaders, the categories as centred headings, no photos.
• PDF: A4, US Letter or A5, with your business on the first page, a running line on the others and page numbers.
• Square posts (1080 × 1080 pixels) and stories (1080 × 1920): every picture stands alone, with your business at the top and your contact line at the foot.

Products are grouped by category in the order the categories first appear (those without one come last), and pages break between products, never inside one.

Sheets and photos

• The sheet’s first row names the columns: Name, Code, Category, Unit, Price, Offer price, Tax, Description and Photo; common other names (Product, Item, SKU, MRP, Rate, Sale price …) are recognised. Text pasted from a spreadsheet works the same, or just two columns: the name and the price.
• Tax cells such as “incl.”, “yes” or “with GST” mean the price includes the tax; “excl.”, “+ GST”, “GST extra” or “no” mean it does not; an empty cell, or anything else (“nil”, “N/A”), follows the list’s own wording.
• Photos are matched by the file name in the Photo column, else the product’s code (A101.jpg), else its name (masala-dosa.jpg). They are made smaller (800 pixels on the long side) on this device and kept with the list.
• Your products as CSV downloads the sheet again, to change it in a spreadsheet and import it back.

Tax and validity wording

The page never calculates tax. Choose “Prices include the tax” or “Prices do not include the tax” and name it (GST, VAT, sales tax): one note is printed at the end. When some products say otherwise in their own Tax field, each price carries a short mark instead — “incl. GST” or “+ GST” — with a line that explains them. A Prices valid until date prints under the title.

The payment QR code

For UPI, the code holds the standard upi://pay link with your UPI ID and the name on the account, without an amount, so the customer types what they pay — the same link the UPI QR Code Generator makes. Any other way of paying or ordering works as a link (https://…). The code prints beside the notes at the end of the catalogue, with your words above it; in the free preview it is drawn spoiled, so it cannot be scanned.

Limitations

• Prices are printed as typed and tax is never worked out: check the figures and the tax wording yourself.
• One promotional post per product is the job of the Bulk Offer Post Maker; this tool makes catalogue pages that hold several products each.
• Photos are made smaller on this device to keep the list light: keep your original photos.
• The PDF sets Latin and Devanagari text as text; Tamil, Bengali, Telugu and other scripts are drawn with this device’s fonts as sharp pictures, which print well but cannot be selected.
• Sharing pictures straight from the page needs a browser that can share files (most phones); elsewhere download them and send them yourself.
• MySmartCoPilot is not affiliated with or endorsed by WhatsApp or Meta; WhatsApp is named only to say where the images can be shared.

Privacy

On this device; its files download once

Your products, photos, logo and settings stay in this browser on this device (its IndexedDB storage) and nothing is uploaded. “Save the list as a file” and “Your products as CSV” download your own data.
