print commands at the top of the screen to print everything on
your finished page.
Internet Explorer versions 4.0 through
current version 10 work great at Printfree.com Now Google Chrome works!
Many versions of other browsers do not give very good results,
some don't even support the format which make customizing our
items possible. For best results,
here is a link to the Internet Explorer site.

allow pages to fully download before printing.

Thank You for Visiting.
Making Entries
Just add your own text in the spaces provided.
Text may be
overwritten. When you have made all of your entries
click "make my calendar" (the gray box at the bottom of the
calendar) This will take you
to the next page where you can print your calendar
by using the print button or command at the top of your web browser.
You can return to this page to make changes by using the back button
at the top of your web browser. To clear all entries from the calendar
and start a new one, click on the reset button at the bottom of the
page.
Error messages In order to keep the calendar the right size for printing we have to
restrict the number of letters allowed in each space. All of the date
boxes (i.e. Sunday the 13th) require between 1 and 12 letters to do
this.
You read right, each box requires at least 1 letter. Don't worry, we
added
a blank space to each box by default. Yes you may overwrite that blank
to fit the full 12 letters into each box. However, if you clear that
same text,
and decide to leave the space blank, you must put a blank back in by
using your space bar.
If you receive an error message, it is indicating one of two possible
errors.
You have either too many characters in the indicated space, or not
enough characters, meaning you've removed every last character from
the space.
The error message will contain a number. If you look at the calendar
below, you will notice that all of the entry fields (boxes) have
numbers
under them. These correspond with the error messages to help you
locate the problem box and correct it with out starting all over.
Example: on this page the number marvt10052 represents the second box
from the top for December 6th. Note the labeling at the bottom of the
date December 6th.
Using CAPITAL or UPPER Case Letters
Very Important! When using all CAPITAL
LETTERS it will be necessary
to use one third less characters than the form allows.
This is because some capital letters like W vs. w are very wide.
Using too many will widen your whole calendar so much that part of it
won't fit on the page and won't print..
We recommend you use capital letters sparingly for best results.
Also, be sure your browser text size is set on medium.
From the drop-down menu in Internet Explorer, select View. Now go
down to highlight text size. This is where you can make sure your
text is set to medium. This setting effect the print size. All of our
items
are designed to use medium.
Security
Please remember this is not a secure encrypted page and someone
could view your entries, though we don't know why they would.
By default we save the first entry on each page (The top one with the
name of the month) temporarily for evaluation purposes, just so we can
see how many times per day the calendars are used.
Personal Info doesn't usually go on a calendar, but if you do
have some sensitive personal information to put on a calendar,
simply write it on the printed version with a pen.
Did you know that you can Email your finished calendar?
Just Copy it and Paste it into an email. After you have finished your calendar, click make my calendar.
At the top of Internet Explorer from the drop down menu "edit" use the
select all command to highlight everything on the ready to print page.
Now press the ctrl and c buttons at the same time on your keyboard
to copy the highlighted calendar. In your Outlook Express email
program,
on your newly created email use the ctrl and v buttons at the same
time to paste the calendar in place. This will work with many other
email
programs too, however, the recipient must use a compatible
email program that will read the html calendar.
It's a great way to get a schedule out fast.
