How to Use JM Press Interactive PDFs and Printables

How to Use Your JM Press Tools

Welcome to your new JM Press treasure Whether you’ve chosen an interactive PDF for your iPad or a printable PDF for your desk, here’s how to get the very best out of your tools.

 Interactive PDFs (Digital iPad Journals & Planners)

Think of these as living books — bold colors, high resolution, clickable navigation, and space for your own handwriting.

How to use:

  1. Download instantly after checkout — your link is ready the moment you order.

  2. Open in a compatible app (we recommend GoodNotes, Notability, Noteshelf, or Xodo).

  3. Write with your stylus/Apple Pencil directly on the pages. These are not fillable text boxes — it’s meant to feel like writing in a real book.

  4. Navigate with ease:

    • Table of Contents: “Jump to Week 4” or “Day 30” in one tap.

    • Navigation buttons: Look for buttons with words like Home, Notes, or Day 10. They stand out in a different color.

    • Home button: Always at the top right — brings you back in a second.

  5. Enjoy the flow — JM Press designs avoid clutter. You’ll find just enough navigation to keep you moving while preserving that book-like feel.

⚠️ Note: Interactive PDFs are best on iPads and tablets — not laptops or desktops (fillable versions are coming soon!).

 Printable PDFs (Classic Paper Style)

For the pen-and-paper lovers  Print your tools and enjoy them anywhere.

How to use:

  1. Download instantly after checkout.

  2. Open on your computer and print at 100% scale (avoid “fit to page” to keep sizing correct).

  3. Choose your size:

    • A4 (standard printer paper)

    • A5 (compact journals)

    • A3 (larger wall-style or desk versions)

  4. Paper matters: For smooth writing, we recommend 90–120 gsm paper.

  5. Low-resolution design: Printable versions are lighter in file size, so they’re quick to download and easy on your printer.

  6. No extras: You won’t find navigation buttons or notebook spirals here — just clean, ready-to-use layouts.

  7. Unlimited printing: Use as many times as you need, whenever you need.

 Quick Tips

  • Keep your interactive files stored safely — you can always re-download from your order page.

  • For printables, save your file on your computer or cloud so you can reprint forever.

  • Mix and match: Use interactive for on-the-go, printable for your desk or wall.

Remember: All JM Press listings are undated (use them anytime), except for our School/Academic Journals which follow the academic year (August/October 2025 – April 2026).

 JM Press Promise: We design with intention — so your tools feel like real books, not just planners. Bold, beautiful, simple to use.
