#33693 — Calendar making program for Linux?

I know I could probably print 12 of my favourite pics and then make calendar
pages to go with them to make a wall calendar (maybe 'cal' can  | to a gui
to make a full page?), but is there a good Linux application that already
does that?  
ie: choose the 12 pics, specify the year and voila?

Maybe off topic, I suppose.

	Linux Misc and you mentioned Linux so how could it be off topic.
I entered "linux calendar making/printing program" in the seach window
of DuckDuckGo and found a lot of stuff which you may have to sort
through but here is one:
<https://opensource.com/article/16/12/using-calendar-function-linux>

When you decide which one or maybe two you want to use you might let
the readers here know.
Good luck!

No idea. I'd probably used a spreadsheet in an office app like
LibreOffice. There might be ready to use functions to create a group of
cells with months and the year on top. May be even enlarge singe cells to
drop images into.

The wallcalendar package for LaTeX seems promising:

* https://ctan.org/pkg/wallcalendar
* https://github.com/profound-labs/wallcalendar

I'd just do it in Scribus.

pcal is a program to create postscript calendars.  It works very nicely, 
doesn't need X, and you can add notes, comments, colors, holidays,
automatic moon phases, and so on easily.

That's interesting....I've installed it and will take a look.
Thank-you for the tip!
