Frequently Asked Questions

Landscape calendars are oriented horizontally (wider than tall), while portrait calendars are vertical (taller than wide). Landscape formats provide wider day cells with more horizontal writing space, making them ideal for wall displays and desk reference. They're particularly useful when you need to write multiple events per day or prefer a side-by-side view of your week.

To print a landscape calendar correctly, select "Landscape" orientation in your printer settings. Choose "Actual Size" or "100%" (not "Fit to Page") to maintain proper dimensions. For double-sided printing, select "Flip on Short Edge." Always use "Print Preview" to verify the layout before printing. Our landscape calendars are already formatted for landscape printing, so you shouldn't need to make additional adjustments.

Standard Letter (11" × 8.5") and A4 (11.69" × 8.27") sizes work well for most landscape calendars. For more spacious day cells and better visibility from a distance, consider larger formats like Tabloid/Ledger (17" × 11") or A3 (16.54" × 11.69"). Our landscape calendars are available in all these sizes, so you can choose the one that best fits your display space and visibility needs.
