Tip for including multiple one months in one file

Post by Vel »

Tim Busken (http://www.timbusken.com/) recently gave me a tip regarding including multiple months in one document/page using this template. This first involves using this template to produce a document with multiple months where each month is a separate page. Then, a new document should be created with the pdfpages package included in the preamble with \usepackage{pdfpages}. Within this new document the calendars can be printed in multiples with \includepdf[landscape,pages={1-4},scale=0.9, nup=2x2]{calendar.pdf}. Here, the nup=2x2 means that the first 4 pages (i.e. calendars) from the calendar document will be tiled on one page. A value of 1x2 would mean two pages will be included, one on top of the other. Another useful command is \includepdfmerge[scale=.9, nup=1x2]{calendar.pdf,5,text.pdf,1} which will print two separate PDF files on one page, in this example a calendar and some text from another document.

This handy technique allows you to combine PDFs into a single document and/or compress down multiple pages to fit on one page in any configuration you might want!
