Print a day, a week or a month of the checklist.

Any day, week or month of the checklist can be printed as a PDF from either checklist page.

1. Open **Today** or **Upcoming** and click the printer icon in the toolbar.
2. Under **Include**, tick the students to print. With more than one student, **All combined** adds a merged household section as further pages. Each pill is its own section, printed in that order.
3. Choose the **Range**, **Day**, **Week** or **Month**, then pick the **Date**. The list offers the current period, labelled "Today · …", "This week · …" or "This month · …", and the nineteen after it.
4. Set the format and options, check the preview on the right, and click **Print**.

On a computer the PDF downloads. In the mobile app it opens in the viewer, where you can share or save it.

## Format

For a day or a week, choose under **Content**:

- **Calendar** — a planner-style overview on one page.
- **Detailed** — directions and task checklists for each lesson.

For a week, the **Days to include** chips pick the weekdays. They start on whichever days have work scheduled, or Monday to Friday when nothing does yet.

**Month** always prints a calendar grid, so the format, days and options do not appear; only **Orientation** applies.

## Layout and options

- **Orientation** — **Landscape** or **Portrait**.
- **Style** — **Day columns** or **Day rows**.
- **Show skipped lessons** — on by default.
- **Show checkmark on completed items**
- **Add lesson checkboxes**
- **Include planner events** — the activities and other events on the schedule.
- **Black & white (printer friendly)**

Your settings are remembered for next time. On a computer the preview redraws as you change them; on a phone the dialog shows the settings alone.

## Students printing their own checklist

A student sees the printer icon in their own toolbar unless you turn off **Print** under **Tools** in their Student Portal settings. See [Permissions](https://www.openskyplanner.com/support/permissions).

## Printing a whole course

To print every lesson of one course rather than a span of days, see [Course](https://www.openskyplanner.com/support/printing-course).
