Self-made calendars can be a great gift. Also, for work and education, it would be great to have our own customized calendar.
In this recipe, we will print a calendar of a whole year, with all months arranged in a tabular layout. You can adjust it to print just one month below an image, for example.
We will use the mighty TikZ bundle again, since it provides a calendar library:
Set up
document
class and page dimensions. Furthermore, change toempty
pagestyle to not have page numbering:\documentclass{article} \usepackage[margin = 2.5cm, a4paper]{geometry} \pagestyle{empty}
Load TikZ and its libraries
calendar
andpositioning
:\usepackage{tikz} \usetikzlibrary{calendar,positioning}
To save the typing effort and for an easier change of year, define a macro for the year and one to call the TikZ
\calendar
command:\newcommand{\calyear}{2016} \newcommand{\mon}[1]{\calendar[dates = \calyear-#1-01 to \calyear-#1-last] if (Sunday) [red];}
