How do I create my design for a Wall Calendar?

Creating your design for a calendar is easy!

  • You can either use our online design editor that will give you a blank template to edit it page by page or you will be able to select a number of pre-made layouts to help you create a beautiful design, add images and/or text boxes.

  • Alternatively, you can download our sample template that will show you how the file should be created so you can recreate the print-ready file. More info on this below.

Creating a print-ready file for a Wall Calendar 

Depending on the calendar type you picked your file PDF print-ready file should contain:

  • 1 cover page
  • 12 inner pages
  • 1 blank page

or

 

For horizontal that we offer with wire'o top (21x21cm, A4, LT 8.5"x11")

  • 1 cover page
  • 24 inner pages
  • 1 blank page

*For these calendar types page 2 (the back cover page) is meant for a photo above the first month grid on page 3 when the calendar is open. Page 4 will be named the same as page 3 as it's the same sheet - the the back page in the double sided print
** For these calendar types there is a punched hole(for hanging) in the middle of the horizontal axis. The center of the hole is positioned approximately 14.5mm/ 0.57 inch from the edge of the calendar page. Please be advised there may be a small discrepancy.
