It was a handy tool – remember, what are your plans, noting important dates. Later calendars began to be used for promotional purposes. Most probably, saving calendar format was the size of a Business Card, 50 x 90 mm. Dates are not seen, but it is similar to the calendar.

You still want to pocket Calendar?
Well, let’s talk about how it can be.
Traditional pocket calendar format – 70 x 100 mm. The unconventional format – 50 x 90 mm. Making calendars little bigger or smaller is not worth it – most of printing houses have a ready template printed sheet where the calendars are placed in the most economical way.
Exception – if you make a calendar “in the appendage”, when on the print sheet there is a place and you can substitute something useful. Then the size will depend on this space.
Face of the calendar – a “place for your advertising.” How to use it:
- find a beautiful picture and gently put the logo in the corner;
- make the design on the basis of brand-book, using the corporate image (for example, repeat the image of the design of the site);
- use this side for purely promotional purposes – to put on it all the phone numbers, address, a map of “how to get here.”
On the back there shall be the calendar grid – otherwise what calendar is it?. There are also options:
- It may just be the calendar without the branding. The case is rare, but possible.
- Calendar grid will be drawn by the designer in the corporate style.
- You can use one of the predefined templates, which provides a strip of 10-12 mm in the middle to accommodate the logo and address of the phone. There are other patterns, allowing to substitute a simple logo in a standard grid.
It is important to remember that it is primarily the calendar. Therefore calendars turnover is almost entirely given to a grid. More space, larger numbers.
Pocket Calendar Postprinting Processing
Traditionally, Calendars round off the corners – that they are not jammed with prolonged use.
Another way to make more durable pocket calendar – lamination. The front side need to laminate necessarily matte or glossy film. A more modest alternative to lamination – offset varnish. It will protect the image, but does not give the rigidity of the paper.
It is necessary to consider whether to laminate the turnover or not. In the calendar you make notes often and it is not possible to write on the tape. In lacquer, incidentally, is also difficult to write, ink is not absorbed.
