Those of you who have been praying for a personal size version of the D*I*Y Planner now have a glimmer of hope, thanks to one Sandra K. of Los Angeles. She sent me a personal size (6.75" by 4.25") Franklin-Covey planner, which had two effects.

First, I finally got to see FC forms (yes, I've never actually seen them before now), and I finally understand all the requests to replace them. Heh.

Second, I've taken a few minutes to run an experiment. Find below the first two D*I*Y Planner forms for a possible personal size edition. It's just the Combined Actions and timed Day Keeper forms, but --like I stress-- this is just an experiment, based upon the Hipster PDA Edition templates. At this stage, I'd like all the feedback you can give me, including the best ways to cut the darn thing.

Speaking of which, is there anybody out there with a decent personal-size six-hole punch (a real metal one, not a flat plastic clip) who would care to donate it to the D*I*Y Planner project to push this edition along? If so, please contact me at diyplanner [at] gmail [dot] com. Hey, it's still a whole lot cheaper than buying all those expensive FC forms, and you could be immortalised in the credits. ;-)

This currently prints on letter size, but A4 users could probably tell Acrobat to center but not scale. However, I have absolutely no idea what constitutes personal size overseas. Please educate me.
