The frame below shows the week pages, with or without the cover, of a Metric
diary. They can be printed out all together or separately.
At the top on the left of each page you see the year number of the week, the
abbreviation of the Metric month and, if enough space, the Month-Day code.
For the use of the (Year-)Week-Day and (Year-)Month-Day codes see especially
Go Global,
Go Metric.
At the top on the right you can find whether the page shows the first,
second, third or fourth week of the month, unless you opt for the Gregorian
dates (see below). There are no preprinted references to supernaturalist,
monarchist or other exclusivist (non)events in this diary.
You have the following options with respect to the presentation of the
diary cover and week pages:
- the week or weeks you want to be shown (any number between 1 and
52), while 0 will display the outside cover pages and 53 the inside
ones
- the Gregorian dates at the top on the right instead of the week and
the name of the Metric month, and the Gregorian-Metric correspondence
of weekdays on the inside back of the cover
- a standard A5- or A6-size diary in black and white with the pages
shown in the order in which they will have to be put together on
paper: after entering one of the numbers from 1 to 26, the other week
page will be supplied automatically to the left or right of
it, with enough room in between for the spine of the booklet; the
numbers 0 and 53 (or 27) will, similarly, supply the cover pages
- the number of week pages you want to see in one row, for example, 4,
so that every row represents a Metric month. (In the standard
printing option this number is 2.)
- the width of each page: somewhere between 350 and 600 pixels, if you
intend to use this diary on paper. (In the standard printing option
450 pixels for A5, 350 for A6.)
- the height of each of the 'day cells' that make up a week: about 100
to 130 pixels, or only 40 to first see what the page will look like.
(The text on the inside cover pages requires a height of at least 100
pixels per cell.)
The option of showing the Gregorian dates at the top of the page is a
concession for practical reasons. If put between parentheses, these dates
refer to the days in a leap year. The Metric day of the week corresponds
with the same Gregorian day of the week for a whole year (or half a year
in leap years). On the inside back of the cover this can be filled in for
the current year. Thus, in 58 aSWW the first weekday falls on a Gregorian
Sunday, the second on a Monday, etc, until 26.8. From 27.1 the first
weekday falls on a Gregorian Monday, the second on a Tuesday, etc. The
correspondence between the dates is only valid (because fixed) so long as
Metric leap years are made to coincide with Gregorian ones.
