Need to Build a Calendar in InDesign?

April 14th, 2008
Written by David Blatner

I wrote an article about how to create calendars in InDesign Magazine, Issue #21 (December 2007/January 2008). For those of you who haven’t been subscribing, I encourage you to do so; or you can buy that one back issue if you want. The article mentioned templates you could use, but focused primarily on a script by Scott Selberg called CalendarWizard.

There is an old and crusty version on the Adobe Exchange, but I wanted to point out that you can also download the script from this page at indesignmag.com.

Also, if you’re wanting to lay out a calendar with vertical spreads (that is, where one page is on top of the other), be sure to read this post about PageControl, and this post with Anne-Marie’s cool trick.

    For german speaking readers I take the liberty to give a link to my blog absatzsetzer.de (=paragraph composer ;-) ), where I had a posting about a very flexible way of calender-making with Excel and InDesign.
