What's new in PrintableCal 2023.01

Aug 3, 2023
  • Improved the Item Template to provide an option for showing time zones.
  • Improved the Item Template to allow new lines to be specified.
  • Improved generating calendars in Word to better fit on the page. In some cases, generated calendars wouldn't fit on the page and would be clipped.
  • Corrected various problems adding calendars and importing events from Microsoft 365. In some cases, calendars weren't shown on the Add Calendar window, or events weren't included in the generated output.
  • Corrected filtering of items. Selecting the option to exclude items containing specified text wasn't working, and the items would still appear in the output.

New in PrintableCal 2021.04 (Dec 6, 2021)

New in PrintableCal 2021.01 (Jun 7, 2021)

  • Added filtering options for either including or excluding items based on associated category. Previously, items that had a matching category would be excluded from the output. Now the filter can be configured so items that DO NOT have a matching category will be excluded instead.

  • Added an option to the Agenda template for placing the name of the associated calendar data source below the event/task titles.
  • Added an option to the Agenda template for coloring event/task title text based on the color of the associated calendar data source (or category).

  • Improved the presets that can be loaded or saved on Step 3 of the Create Calendar panel. The presets will now include the filtering criteria. In other words, the presets can now be used to save and load different combinations of filters and/or calendar data sources.
  • Improved the category filtering user interface. Instead of needing to type the full category name and separate multiple categories with semicolons, a drop-down list will appear with matching suggestions while typing a category name, and categories that have been added to the filter can be removed by clicking an X button on the category.
  • Improved all templates that show time slots (such as the Day and Week Column templates) to include a setting for outputting 10 minute time slots. Previously, the smallest supported time slot was 15 minutes.
  • Improved the Week Grid template to support specifying start and end cell names where event titles should appear on each day, instead of assuming event titles always start on the row immediately below the day name, and end on the row immediately above the next day name.
  • Corrected problems importing from iCloud or other iCalendar URLs/files. In some cases, an error message would appear (expecting COLON, found ' ') and no items would appear in the output.

  • Added the ability to import filters and labels as calendar data sources from Todoist.

  • Improved performance when generating calendars in Excel. The Excel window will no longer flicker or update while calendar generation is still in progress.

  • Improved calendar data sources to include a hover tooltip showing details about the data source location, such as the full URL or file path, associated Google account, etc.
  • Corrected importing events that are not specifically marked as all day, but begin at 12:00 AM on one day and end at 12:00 AM on another day. Those events will be treated as being all-day and won't incorrectly appear to also occur on the ending date.
  • Corrected cases where the About PrintableCal window can appear behind the main Excel, Word, or PowerPoint window.
  • Corrected selecting the time slot range for various templates, such as the Day template, when an ending time slot of midnight is selected. Previously, this would result in the starting time slot also being set to midnight.
  • Other minor corrections and improvements.

New in PrintableCal 2.0.12 (Nov 28, 2019)

  • Updated to use the latest Todoist v8 API. Importing from Todoist stopped working due to an older API being used.
  • Corrected various cases where the bottom edges of events could sometimes be clipped in the Month template as well as some of the other templates.
  • Corrected the Month template when configured with the option to overflow items that can't fit to additional pages. Some items would get clipped on the first page instead of overflowing to the additional page.
  • Corrected a "name already exists" warning message. This was usually seen when generating to the same workbook where a calendar was previous generated, but could also be seen under other conditions.
  • Corrected the Week Grid template. When multiple calendar data sources were selected, some events wouldn't appear in the output.
  • Corrected the "More items" tooltip to not show HTML formatting code. This was a problem in the Month template and other templates that show a "More items" indicator when items can't fit.
  • Corrected cases where templates could be resized smaller than required for fitting on a single page.

  • Corrected the Multiple Months as Columns and Multiple Months as Rows templates to include events that span more than 1 day.

  • Corrected importing tasks from Google. The tasks could be imported to the wrong day, depending on the user's time zone.

  • Other minor corrections and improvements.

New in PrintableCal 2.0.10 (Sep 26, 2019)

  • Added the ability to import tasks from Exchange Server.
  • Added a "Restore Defaults" button to all template settings. Clicking this button will restore the selected template's settings back to the original factory defaults.
  • Added a Google Calendar option to use either the modern or classic color sets. Previously, the modern color set was always used, so if Google Calendar was configured with the classic color set, the text and background colors of PrintableCal's output wouldn't match the colors seen in Google Calendar. To access this option, click the Options button on the PrintableCal tab of the ribbon and then click the Google Calendar tab on the Options window.
  • Improved the Agenda template to use calendar data source font sizes and to allow overriding the font sizes in the template settings.
  • Improved importing from Exchange Server. If an account password has expired, a window will appear where the updated password can be entered. If multiple calendar data sources are associated with the account, they will also be automatically updated with the new password. This eliminates the need to remove and re-add all Exchange Server calendars when a password has expired.
  • Corrected an error when importing shared room calendars from Exchange Server.
  • Corrected an error message when attempting to import birthday calendars from Outlook.
  • Corrected importing tasks from Outlook. Tasks that have a due date but no start date weren't properly importing.

  • Improved the formula for automatically inserting mini-months in the generated output. The formula now supports a parameter for specifying the starting month offset. See the documentation for more details.

  • Corrected the sort order of events in the generated output when the template setting to sort based on calendar data source has been selected. If calendar data sources were re-ordered, the updated order wasn't being applied to the output. The updated calendar data source order would also revert to the previous order after restarting.
  • Other minor corrections and improvements.

New in PrintableCal 2.0.8 (May 27, 2019)

  • Improved the Year Photo template to allow a starting month to be specified, instead of assuming January.
  • Other minor corrections and improvements.

New in PrintableCal 2.0.7 (May 17, 2019)

  • Improved the PowerPoint add-in to support generating the calendar as an editable Excel Worksheet Object, RTF, HTML, or an image.

  • Other minor corrections and improvements.

New in PrintableCal 2.0.5 (Apr 1, 2019)

  • Added the ability to include event and task descriptions in the Week Grid template (if space is available).
  • Improved the color drop-down to include a "Random Color" option.

  • The events and tasks that appear in the output can now be filtered based on category or whether they are marked as being all-day.
  • Different combinations of selected calendar data sources can be saved as reusable presets.
  • The text that appears in the output for each event and task can be customized. Want to see event times after their titles instead of before? You can do that now.
  • You can now connect PrintableCal to additional data sources - Todoist, Excel files, and CSV files. You can also connect PrintableCal to any number of Google accounts. If you have multiple Google accounts and want to see all your events overlaid into a single calendar, this is possible now in PrintableCal 2019.

Note, some templates are designed to fit best on Letter sized paper and may still need to be customized to fit better on the desired page size. Other templates will dynamically re-size to match whichever paper size is selected.
