memori ✂️

The Hobonichi Techo is a Life Book with one page for each day of the year. I use mine as a daily planner, journal, and sketchbook.

This year, Hobonichi announced an official Hobonichi Techo App, which, among other features, lets users print photos that are perfectly sized to fit the Techo's grid paper.

One tiny problem with this:

The Memory Print feature requires a paid subscription.

So here's a web app that does the same thing (and then some) for free.

usage

Different Techo types use differently-sized grid paper. Use the links below to select the appropriate grid size for your Techo:

Techo	Link
Planner A6	Use 4mm grid ↗ (default)
Original Cousin HON A6 HON A5 Original Avec Cousin Avec 5-Year Techo A6 5-Year Techo A5 Day-Free A6 Day-Free A5	Use 3.7mm grid ↗
Weeks Weeks Mega	Use 3.55mm grid ↗
Other planners	Add a "grid-size" parameter to the url like so: https://hunterirving.github.io/memori/?grid-size=5mm This value can be anywhere between 2mm and 10mm.

[!IMPORTANT] Printing from Safari is not currently supported. Please use Firefox or Chrome instead.

controls

after opening memori in your web browser, drag one or more images from your desktop onto the grid (or press ⌘ + v to paste image data from your clipboard)
click and drag images to move them
resize images using the edge/corner resize handles
hover an image and pinch with two fingers to scale (on supported trackpads)
- or, when using a mouse, scale with ctrl + scrollwheel
hover an image and drag with two fingers to pan (set the "crop" - the part of the image that's visible)
- or, when using a mouse, hover an image and use the scrollwheel to pan vertically, or use shift + scrollwheel to pan horizontally
⌘ + click an image to duplicate it
option + click an image to rotate it
shift + click an image to delete it
press F2 to select from one of six user interface themes (you may also have to hold Fn)

Once you've filled out the page, press ⌘ + P to print using your system's default print dialog.

[!TIP] For best results... - select "Scale: 100%" rather than "Fit to page width" - set Margins to None or 0

Use scissors (or a hobby knife) to cut your images to size:

Then stick 'em down with a gluestick (or try printing with sticker paper):
