reMarkable Templates Repository

This repository is a collection of LaTeX-based PDF templates designed for reMarkable devices (reMarkable Paper Pro, 1, and 2), aimed at enhancing productivity, organization, and note-taking. Each template is crafted to fit the reMarkable Paper Pro screen (1404x1872 pixels, ~4.97x6.63 inches at 226 PPI) and is organized into subfolders based on use case (e.g., meetings, planning, journaling). The templates are professional, customizable, and optimized for handwritten notes.

Repository Structure

The templates are organized into the following subfolders, each containing specific templates for different purposes:

• meeting-notes/

  • Meeting_Notes_Template.tex: A two-page template for streamlined meeting note-taking.
    • Page 1: Meeting Details (Date, Subject, Location), Key Takeaways (3 lines), and Notes (10 lines for extensive note-taking).
    • Page 2: Action Items (table for tasks, assignees, and due dates) and Quadrant Notes (Eisenhower Matrix with large 0.9in boxes for prioritization).
    • Features: Compact 10pt font, customizable logo, large Quadrant Notes boxes for ample writing space.
    • Use Case: Ideal for professionals capturing meeting discussions, action items, and task prioritization.

  • Planned templates: Fitness Tracker, Budget Planner, and Student Assignment Planner.

Prerequisites

To use these templates, you’ll need:

• A LaTeX editor (e.g., Overleaf) or a local LaTeX installation (e.g., TeX Live with latexmk).
• A reMarkable device (Paper Pro, 1, or 2).
• Tools for transferring PDFs to your reMarkable (e.g., reMarkable desktop/mobile app, rM2 Tool, or RCU).
• (Optional) A graphics editor (e.g., Photoshop, GIMP, or Canva) for adding custom logos.

Installation and Setup

1. Clone the Repository:

   git clone https://github.com/raddadengineer/remarkable-templates.git
   cd remarkable-templates

2. Navigate to a Subfolder:

   cd meeting-notes

   Replace meeting-notes with the desired subfolder (e.g., daily-planner, journal, specialized).

3. Compile the LaTeX File:

   • Open the .tex file (e.g., Meeting_Notes_Template.tex) in a LaTeX editor like Overleaf, or use a local LaTeX installation.
   • Compile the file to generate a PDF:

     latexmk -pdf Meeting_Notes_Template.tex

   • The output PDF is sized for the reMarkable Paper Pro (4.97x6.63 inches at 226 PPI).

4. Add a Custom Logo (Optional):

   • For templates supporting logos (e.g., Meeting Notes), uncomment the \includegraphics line in the .tex file:

     \includegraphics[width=0.25\textwidth]{logo.png}

   • Replace logo.png with the path to your logo file (PNG format recommended).
   • Adjust the width (e.g., 0.25\textwidth) for proper scaling.
   • Recompile the LaTeX file to include the logo.

5. Import to reMarkable:

   • Transfer the compiled PDF to your reMarkable device using:
     • The reMarkable desktop or mobile app (drag and drop the PDF).
     • Tools like rM2 Tool or RCU:

       rm2-tool upload Meeting_Notes_Template.pdf

   • Organize the PDF in a folder (e.g., “Meeting Notes”) on your reMarkable for easy access.

Usage

• Meeting Notes Template (meeting-notes/Meeting_Notes_Template.tex):

  • Page 1: Fill in Meeting Details (Date, Subject, Location), Key Takeaways (3 lines), and Notes (10 lines).
  • Page 2: List tasks, assignees, and due dates in Action Items; use Quadrant Notes for task prioritization (Eisenhower Matrix).
  • Tips: Write directly on the PDF using reMarkable’s Marker. Duplicate the PDF for multiple meetings (e.g., create a 756-page version by repeating the layout).

• Other Templates:

  • Refer to subfolder-specific READMEs (if available) for detailed usage instructions once additional templates are added.
  • General tip: Favorite or tag templates on your reMarkable for quick access.

Creating Additional Templates

To create new templates or extend existing ones:

• Duplicate a .tex file in the appropriate subfolder and modify its content.
• Ensure the PDF dimensions remain 1404x1872 pixels (4.97x6.63 inches at 226 PPI).
• Use tools like ReCalendar or Hyperpaper.me for inspiration or to generate custom layouts.
• Add new templates to relevant subfolders (e.g., daily-planner, journal) and update this README.

Limitations

• PDF Constraints: These templates do not support handwriting-to-text conversion, layer functionality, or typed text (Type Folio) on reMarkable.
• Exporting: For proper display when emailing or exporting, pair PDFs with SVG versions (create using a graphics editor and import with rM2 Tool or RCU).
• Personal Use: Templates are for personal use only. Do not distribute or modify for commercial purposes without permission.

Contributing

Contributions are welcome! To contribute:

1. Fork the repository.
2. Create a new branch (git checkout -b feature/new-template).
3. Add or modify .tex files in the appropriate subfolder (e.g., meeting-notes, daily-planner).
4. Update this README to reflect new templates or subfolders.
5. Submit a pull request with a description of your changes.

Ensure all templates are compatible with reMarkable devices (1404x1872 pixels) and use packages from texlive-full or texlive-fonts-extra.
