Very inspiring!

Thanks!

That sent me to the FLY-site, finally. I am definitely going to do my personal version. I think I really need my own routine lists - for example yesterday morning I was left wondering if I had taken my medication or not... (it's breathable, so I can't put it in a dozer)

Thanks for making this more accessible

I had thought of using this system before, but found the huge amount of info on the flylady website overwhelming. Your well-thought out pages and clear instructions have encouraged me to think about trying it again. My sink (oh, it does have a bottom...) and I thank you.

True but ...

Star's response is technically correct that PDF files cannot be edited. However, the original poster (and several others of late) are actualy commenting upon a separate issue entirely, namely the absence/disappearance of the OpenOffice.org template that accompanied the remaining PDF file.

The OOo file disappeared

There is only a PDF

Same problem with my file

I downloaded it and also only received a .pdf file, not the OOo file. If it can be emailed, please let me know who to contact to get it.

Thanks,
Gina

PDF's aren't editable

star — Tue, 15 Jul 2008 02:04:03 -0400

Cyndy,
PDF's aren't made to be changed. Usually when they are created, it is so they can't be changed. My office uses them for board reporting and version control of policies. You can obtain software that will let you edit existing PDF's, but I can't speak to the effectiveness of the software.

Hi, I opened the PDF and I can't change anything. What am I doing wrong? Before I forget thanks for putting it all together, it looks great!

Open Office source file

Hi I downloaded it and all i got was the PDF, Wheres the OOo File? I would really love to have it as i use OOo all the time and would make it so much eazyer to edit it to my home. I love how you set this planner up and how well it would work for me.

If your your willing to email it to me I would be so thankful.

I have gmail using the same name as my user name here.

Ah maybe an explanation

reepicheep — Mon, 5 May 2008 16:43:28 -0400

There could be an explanation to the confusion in this thread. At one time there were copies of this planner page availabe as a PDF file and as the original OpenOffice.org Draw document. It would seem that the latter file has disappeared or the link lost during some update.

Do you have a kit for a palm

Do you have a kit for a palm os? Do you have plans to make a kit for some of the other flylady control journals? The packing list?
FACE journal? and some of the others?

Editing PDF ain't easy

reepicheep — Mon, 5 May 2008 10:08:09 -0400

Editing PDF files is not easy. It is not intended to be easy. PDF was created as a standard format for sending documents to printers (the human kind) for them to runoff on their high quality printing machines.

However, there are some progams around that can hack PDF files. The Gimp (from www.gimp.org, which like OOo is open source) can change page contents. But be warned it is tedious. You will be working at the pixel/bit level so any thought of using fonts you should forget completely. Also you'll have to work through the document page by page.

The only solution to modifying a PDF file is to go back to the original version of the document and edit that with the program creating the PDF file.

It won't work.

You can't open or edit PDF files in OOo.

I love it! I really didn't want to spend $15 on the full size planner, but this is so easy to adapt!

This is a customizable kit based on the works of Marla Cilley, AKA FlyLady. I basically wanted my control journal to fit with my main planner size and look well put together. I have included a PDF for printing and Open Office source file based on the D*I*Y Planner Widget Kit.
