CHRONOGRAPHY is a PDF digital planner that brings a year of plans and a dated note for every day into one book. Check what’s ahead by year, month and week, then think it through on the day’s note. More than 9,000 hyperlinks let you move between pages as you go.

What’s included

  • The planner (PDF): the cover, Yearly, Monthly, Weekly and Daily Note pages, connected by hyperlinks
  • The Guide page: a web page made for your edition, with recommended color values, stickers, three tools, Home Screen icons and more

Which editions this manual covers

This manual describes CY2027 and FY2027. AY2026-2027 follows the previous specification, so its Yearly page design and Guide page tools are different.

Supported apps and devices

CHRONOGRAPHY works in handwriting note apps that can open PDFs and follow hyperlinks. Writing, adding images, search and sync are features of the app you use. The 2027 edition files are light: every type fits within the free version of Goodnotes (5 MB), as of October 16, 2026.

A standard-size iPad or larger is recommended. It works fine on iPad mini if you zoom in and out, but the small, narrow screen makes text small when a whole page is shown. If that feels like extra effort, the Daily Portrait layout of KotaLog Diary is a better fit.

This manual covers how to use CHRONOGRAPHY and its Guide page, regardless of the app. App-specific steps and settings are in Tips.
