hyperpaper-planner VS recalendar

I'm a big fan of my rm2, too -- and am writing to respond to this:

> "I’d also love a more formal diary / daily entry system. Kind of like Obsidian’s daily notes. Some kind of date-based notebook inside the Remarkable would be rad (even if it doesn’t sync with your actual calendar!). A daily journaling / diary / planning format would be great. (Yes, right now you can select a day-planner template, but you can’t then see them in a calendar view - the date isn’t a foundational element of the note)."

Take a look at https://hyperpaper.me

> https://hyperpaper.me/ Configurable, highly linked PDF planner with a very responsive person behind it (I figure he must be around here somewhere :))

Hey, that's me :D

Thanks for the shout-out Ethan, I'm happy to answer any questions people have about hyperpaper

Building your own templates is pretty fun, but look out because it can turn into a real rabbit hole if you get into it (in my case, a full side-project: https://hyperpaper.me)

Obligatory plug: I make a customizable planner that might work for you: https://hyperpaper.me/ There are demo files available so you can try out the pdf planner approach and see if it fits what you're looking for

Hi, I make https://hyperpaper.me/ and it's pretty customizable! For your points specifically:

use a pdf that supports extra pages per day (I make this one which lets you add 1-2 extra pages for every day)

I've done a lot of work with pdf linking for hyperpaper and link handling can be a bit finicky across e-Ink devices (not just for the rM2). In Canva do you specify the name/path for these internal links? Sometimes non-ascii characters in there aren't supported

I'm not seeing any, but there is also a paid option for creating notebooks that have a similar set of features and with more customizability: https://hyperpaper.me/. It looks like it might be more usable for left-handed people, as in the demo PDF.

pdf files that have links "baked in" before they are uploaded to the rM2 will work, however. Most software (eg Canva, InDesign, etc) for creating pdf files will support adding links in some way. Or you can use off-the-shelf tools for creating linked pdfs (https://hyperpaper.me/ is my project that does this specifically for devices like the rM2)

Thanks for checking and the kind words!

Yeah, I wish RM allowed "moving" notes from one PDF to a new version of it. But I recently found of a workaround [0]. It requires SSH access, so it's not for everyone. But I'm assuming it's not a problem for HN crowd. I would not be surprised if there's already some hack/software to automate it - or to write a simple script yourself.

Hope this helps!

Thanks for the suggestion - it was also suggested on the original, PHP version: https://github.com/klimeryk/recalendar/issues/7. But there it was much harder to implement, as it's not as easy to reshuffle PHP templates (at least not without significant refactoring). With the new version it should be easier to implement - I'll give it a try this weekend.

Here is a calender for free. Also a blank Version for 2022 https://github.com/klimeryk/recalendar

I haven't tried it but https://github.com/klimeryk/recalendar/ looks promising.

It does not - though, it should be quite easy to add that. See this commit on how I added the customizable starting month: https://github.com/klimeryk/recalendar/commit/7dfecd89007aa483e323100c147524b842fb5377
