As some may have "heard," I've being doing a calendar. Not all printed yet,
but some pages printed.
In case you are curious...

Most of you will have seen most of them. (Screen shots as it is laid out in
Word.)
I need a small calendar for myself, thus the size. For my friend I will just
not cut them down.
The rest is FYI, in case you've been thinking about doing a calendar
sometime.
It's been an interesting project and these are the results/side
effects/things I discovered:
1. Did it in Word. Works okay, but there may be something better. Because I
liked none of the templates, I created tables and had to type in my own
numbers (this is the part that could work better). I have Word 2000, so I
downloaded the Office 2007 trial to try it (was hoping for gradient color in text,
nope). Ugh. Though I could get used to it eventually, Word 2007 slowed me down.
So I found a plug-in that would create "Classic Menus" in all Office
products (there are several plug-ins) and then found I could handle 2007 just fine.
:-) I would definitely want a traditional menu until I learn the new
interface. (Haven't decided if will keep after trial.)
Hope you are aware that Orifice 2007 uses a four letter suffix to files
(e.g. *.docx) that are not openable in any other version, even if you
remove the x. Many folks don't know this as they have their OS set to
the default of not showing extension. I think there is a plugin to deal
with that but I find it much easier to ignore 2007 files.
