CalenClick builds finished, fully editable calendars and planners for you, right inside Adobe Illustrator and InDesign. Every date in the right place, every holiday listed, every element a real text frame or shape you can restyle.
A 12-month calendar is 365 dates, 84 day names, a dozen month titles and a holiday list, and every one of them has to be right. Every CalenClick tool builds all of it for you as clean, editable vector artwork, in seconds.

CalenClick started as an Illustrator script and grew into a full plugin for Illustrator and InDesign. All three are still available, so you can pick the one that matches your work and budget.
Script · version 1.1
The fast, simple way to a clean 12-month calendar in Illustrator.
Script · version 1.4.1
Everything in Pro, plus the graphic controls for designed calendars and planners.
Plugin · version 3.0
A full panel inside Illustrator and InDesign, with live preview and ready-made presets.
A script is a single file you run when you need a calendar. A plugin is a panel that stays open in your app while you design. Here is what that means in practice.
Run the script, fill in a dialog, click Generate Calendar. The calendar is drawn on your active artboard in its own layer, and the dialog closes.
A panel that stays docked in Illustrator or InDesign. Pick a preset, change a value and see the calendar update on the page before you generate.

The scripts are single .jsx files for Illustrator: you run one, fill in its dialog and it draws a 12-month calendar (or one month with the Advanced script). The plugin is a panel for Illustrator and InDesign with live preview, 147 presets, 13 layout modes, 99 languages, automatic holidays and fit-to-page. See the comparison table.
For an occasional year calendar in Illustrator, CalenClick Pro ($9) is enough. For designed calendars with cards, cells and highlights, choose the Pro Advanced Script ($29). If you make calendars or planners often, sell them, or work in InDesign, the Pro Advanced plugin ($49) does the most.
