Calendar 2009

[juergen]

Good morning,

this year I wanted to try to create a wall calendar to be printed in DIN A1 size for my customers. So I fired up my favourite graphics app and started to create lots of boxes, numbers and a few images.

As I am not a designer I would be happy for any hints on what can be improved, especially my choice of colors. The main color them is from my website and logo.

The audience is mainly high level IT folks in the banking/insurance industry. The calendar will be printed on paper where you can paint on with a whiteboard marker and clean it if wanted.

What is missing at the bottom currently is the public holidays which will take some space.
As I was unable to embed the fonts due to license restriction, I created a pdf and exported text as shapes. If somebody is interested, I can attach the .xar file too but have no idea what will be displayed when there is a lack of the used font.

Thanks in advance for every feedback,
Juergen

Edit: So far I am unable to create a .pdf that is smaller than 550kb. For this reason I embedded an exported image until I resolve that.
Edit2: .xar file is 550kb, too big. zipped .xar file is 511kb, too big ... Any idea how to make it smaller ?
