How to Make a Digital Planner in Canva (With Working Links!)

Canva makes it easy to design beautiful planner pages—but adding working hyperlinks is another story. Below you’ll learn the complete workflow: design in Canva, export properly, and batch-link all tabs and dates in minutes using PDF-Linkr.

1. Set Up Your Canva Document

  • Size: 8.5 × 11 in or 1080 × 1350 px (portrait)
  • Add 12 duplicate pages for monthly calendars
  • Add 1 Weekly and 1 Daily Layout

2. Design Your Tabs & Calendar

Place tabs outside the page margin so they’re easy to tap. Label each clearly (Jan, Feb, …).

3. Export Correctly

File → Download → PDF Standard; un-check “Flatten PDF” so text remains selectable.

4. Batch-Link in PDF-Linkr

5. Test & Sell

Open the linked planner in Goodnotes or your favorite PDF annotation app. Tap each tab—everything should jump perfectly.
