Yearly Planner

After losing some money by bungling a flight booking, I am wanting a yearly planner in a single A3 sheet size. This could be folded down to A5 for traveling. |

A whole year on A3 (or two A4) is a lot of data – the text may be rather small! <plug mode>If you have Organizer, on a 1920×1080 screen you can display 14 weeks across, or 6 columns of 4 weeks, and they can be printed on two A4 pages. Or even all on one A4 page … but smaller. With larger screen sizes more weeks can be displayed and printed.</plug mode> |

Ronald can you build a draw file illustrating your request, and for reformatting they would be objects in a group, textarea for example? |

Martin, the idea of using A3 was because of printer size and to scroll around if needed. |

I have never been able to try it, but (recent) Organizer should work with an A3 printer – it should fill the page and print in any of the formats in the display. Contact me directly if you want further details. |

You could make a series of Tablemate files for each month and put them on a DTP page. |

Hi Ross, Draw is available on any default machine or emulator though. Sounds like I should look at Tablemate sometime. |

You could also do similar (create table, drop into DTP) with recent versions of Fireworkz (Pro). Has the advantage of not needing aemulor, but may be overkill for “just” a table. Fireworkz can save regions as Draw, and also save embedded files into dtp in case you need to make edits/changes later. |

Sorry, but I can’t download the sample draw file. |

Jean_Micheal, sorry for not making the google drive link Netsurf friendly, I have got the method wriiten down and will look for it later. |

Ronald,I managed to recover your Draw file, I better understand your need. The script contains macros which simplify the work, I hope the comments will be sufficient. You can also change the attributes of boxes and text. Thanks to Gareth MacCaughan, the !MkDrawf manual is very interesting, very good approach to !Draw. Feedback is welcome. |

Thanks Jean-Michel, I didn’t know there was any problem downloading the google drive shared links, I noticed emails with your name requesting permission, I have not had this before. |
