Introduction

This program generates a book agenda file in PDF format, ready to be printed or loaded on a ebook reader.

You can choose among different sections. Each section have pdf links to other parts of the agenda.

I've created it for using with my iLiad eBook reader. Btw, I recommend using with ipdf gmt's for editing version.

Two screenshots of sample pages:

• week page, landscape (option W)

  

• day page, vertical (option d)
