Calendar Generator

Create custom calendars for any month and year with print-friendly layouts and date highlighting

Overview

The Calendar Generator creates customizable calendars for any month and year with print-friendly layouts. It allows date highlighting for important events, supports different week start days (Sunday or Monday), and can generate monthly, quarterly, or full-year views perfect for planning, printing, or embedding in documents.

Tips

  1. Choose your week start day based on your region - US/Canada typically use Sunday as the first day of the week, while most of the world (ISO 8601 standard) uses Monday. This affects how week numbers are calculated.

  2. Use color coding for different event types - Assign consistent colors to categories (red for holidays, blue for meetings, green for deadlines) to make your calendar easier to scan at a glance.

  3. Test print settings before bulk printing - Print one page first to check margins, font size, and layout. Use landscape orientation for quarterly or yearly calendars for better readability.

  4. Consider quarterly view for project planning - Seeing three months at once helps you plan across month boundaries and avoid scheduling conflicts that aren’t obvious in a single-month view.

  5. Export as PDF for consistent rendering - PDFs maintain formatting across devices and platforms, while direct printing results may vary depending on browser and printer settings.
