Midori compatible diary journal inserts

For those of you who like a day-per-page diary or journal, I have created dated, two-month inserts you can make yourself.



These are designed to work as Midori Traveler's Notebook inserts but will work equally well as stand-alone booklets.

Ideal if you want to try keeping a journal, these will also suit people who sometimes have busy days and want the freedom to organise their schedule on a free-format basis.

You can download one of more of the sets. Each contains two months of pages, so the whole of 2013 is spread across six booklets.

Each file prints double-sided on A4 paper in booklet mode. In all, you'll print sixteen sheets per set, which you can then bind into a cover and trim. This post will show you how.

Here are the files:

Thank you. Are you going to join the Midori club?

I am tempted, but at the moment I am resisting... I need to get over the OCD issues that I have with being unable to write messily in anything first. I intend to start journalling at some point and these would be ideal, but I have a small pile of pretty notebooks that I bought for this purpose as well - who knows when I will get round to it. I'm in the process of trying to find a new printer too (colour laser) as the inkjet is dead, probably mainly from lack of use (it was so slow I rarely used it).

First off, Love the inserts. However, I am having a problem printing the forms into a booklet. I'm using word 2007. I just open the document file and try to print the file. I just get one day on each page.

Look in your printer settings for a 'booklet' setting. Not all printers will have one. It yours doesn't you can google 'FinePrint' which will do the same thing for you.

Thanks for the help. FinePrint worked beautifully for me.

I too had a problem printing in booklet form in Word 2007. I saved the document as a PDF from Word. Once it opened in Adobe PDF reader, I had no problems whatsoever.

These Midori TN projects and printouts are great. My TN is full of notebooks that I made using your instructions, and I thank you.

I'm looking for a way to make a booklet that will work with the Pomodoro Technique. I'm thinking that it would need a page per day, for "to do today" (daily tasks), a page/2 pages before the start of each new week for the "activity archive" (list of all to dos), and also a page for each daily report on what was done and any distractions that came along. Do you have any suggestions on how I could go about doing this?
