How to save a calendar and open it again

Finished calendars are worth keeping — next year's birthday planner starts from this year's. The Save button downloads your calendar as a small file on your device, and Load brings it back exactly as it was, style edits included.

Save your calendar

  1. Set up the calendar completely — format, dates, design, style edits, notes, holidays.
  2. Press Save (the icon at the top right of the preview) to open the "Save calendar" dialog.
  3. Press Save to file. Your browser downloads a calendar file (`.json`) — keep it somewhere you will find it, with whatever name your browser suggests or a folder of your own.

Nothing is uploaded. The file is yours: copy it to another computer, keep it in a backup, or email it to yourself.

Open a saved calendar

  1. Press Load next to Save.
  2. In the "Load calendar" dialog, press Open calendar file… and pick your `.json` file — or simply drag the file onto the dialog.
  3. The generator restores the whole calendar and tells you what it loaded, including the name and the date you saved it.

Tips

  • The saved file keeps your edited design, notes size, week start, paper size — everything. Treat it as a reusable template for next month.
  • Files only open in this generator, so there is no risk of a stranger's file changing anything but your own calendar.

Mini-FAQ

Is there online storage?
No. Saving is a plain file on your device, which is why there is no account and nothing to expire.
