Double-Sided Printing Instructions (PDF)
Check the "Sort pages for double-sided printing" option
to download a file containing weekly planner pages for one month or one year sorted for
back-to-back printing where each week is spread across two pages.
- Before printing
-
The instructions below are intended as a general-purpose guide for modern inkjet and laser printers. If
you have an older model printer, or one that grabs extra sheets while printing, or one that prints in reverse order
by default, these instructions may not work for you without adjustments. Depending on the issue, you are encouraged
to either set your printer to "forward order printing" or print only one month at a time.
- 1. Print the front pages
-
From Adobe Reader, click File->Print to open the Print dialog.
If you are printing to Personal or Classic size paper:
set your page range to "All".
If you are printing to Letter or A4 size paper:
set your page range to "Pages:" leaving the full range in the box.
Then change Subset to "Odd pages only", uncheck the "Reverse pages" option, and click OK to print.
- 2. Print the back pages
-
When the odd pages have printed, insert the stack into your printer
so that the backs will be printed. From the Print dialog, make sure your
print range is set to "All" or "Pages" (according to Step 1) and
change Subset to "Even pages only". Check the "Reverse pages" box, then click
OK to print (be sure to uncheck the Reverse pages box after printing).
- 3. Sort and bind your weekly planner
-
Sort your planner pages, cut (if using Personal or Classic size), and bind. Your custom
planner is ready to use!
Double-Sided Printing Instructions (Excel)
Check the "Sort pages for double-sided printing" option
to download a file containing weekly planner pages for one month or one year sorted for
back-to-back printing.
- Before printing
-
The instructions below are intended as a general-purpose guide for modern inkjet and laser printers. If
you have an older model printer, or one that grabs extra sheets while printing, these instructions may not
work for you without adjustments. In this case, you are encouraged to print only one month at a time.
- 1. Print the front pages
-
With your Microsoft Excel planner file open, you will see either 6 weeks of tabs (1
month), or up to 54 weeks of tabs (1 year). Select the front pages by selecting
the first half of tabs. You can do this by clicking the
first tab, holding down the SHIFT button, then clicking the 3rd tab (if you're
printing 1 month) or the 27th tab (if printing a full year).
Click File->Print to open the Print dialog. Set
'page range' to "All", set 'print what' to "Active sheet(s)", and
click OK to print.
- 2. Print the back pages
-
When the front pages have printed, insert the stack into your printer
so that the backs will be printed. In Excel, select the second half of tabs
(Wk2 through Wk54, for example). Select the Wk2 tab, hold the SHIFT button down,
then select the Wk54 tab. From the Print dialog, set 'page
range' to "All", set 'print what' to
"Active sheet(s)", and click OK to print.
- 3. Bind and your weekly planner is ready to use!
-
Make sure your stack is in the correct order. If you have the materials and tools for
binding, you can do it yourself, or bring it to your local printer for finishing.
