when uploading documents in pdf format onto your immiaccount; do they need to be certified copies?

This can depend on the processing officer and reading other people's experiences it can be both. Some people have managed to upload colour originals of documents without certifying. The only document you don't certify is usually the police certificate as they ask for the original. When I did a RRV recently I was asked for certified passport and the instructions basically said all documents need to be certified unless told. There were a few emails I attached in regards to my application which I didn't and never had a problem.
Just go to solicitor and certify all that you need to just to be on the safe side. I managed to sweet talk mine and they only charged £5 for the biscuit barrel lol.

Depends on what type of visa you are applying for.

These day, most ask for scans of originals, but it depends on your visa type.
