How to Use Our Free Calendars

Below is a guide on how to use our free Calendars, and difference between the formats RGB and CMYK and their use cases.

How to use our free Calendars

Our calendars are 100% free. You can print them out and use them at your home, workplace, or church - wherever you prefer to have a calendar. For each calendar, I provide two types of files: one in RGB and the other in CMYK formats.

What is RGB?

RGB stands for Red, Green, and Blue, the primary colors of light. This color model is used for digital displays, such as computer monitors, TVs, and smartphones. In RGB, colors are created by combining these three colors in various proportions. When red, green, and blue light are combined at their highest intensity, they create white light. Lower intensities or different combinations produce a range of other colors.

What is CMYK?

CMYK stands for Cyan, Magenta, Yellow, and Key (black). It's a color model primarily used in color printing. Unlike RGB, which is additive (colors are added together to create different hues), CMYK is subtractive. It works by subtracting brightness from white. In CMYK, colors are created by overlaying different amounts of cyan, magenta, yellow, and black ink. The combination of these inks can produce a wide range of colors. The 'K' in CMYK represents black ink, which is used because mixing C, M, and Y does not produce a deep, solid black.

What to Use?

If you plan to print the calendar or bring it to a print shop—online or brick-and-mortar—then use the CMYK file, as it produces better quality prints. If you're going to use it on your computer, the RGB file is preferable, as it is smaller in size than the CMYK one.

Our dual-format calendar system ensures you get the best quality, whether viewing on digital screens or printing for physical use. The RGB format caters to the vibrant display on electronic devices, while the CMYK format is optimized for high-quality printing results. This flexibility allows you to enjoy our calendars in various settings, ensuring both practicality and visual appeal. Enjoy organizing your time with our versatile, user-friendly calendars.
