Printing only the events you want in iCal

Technology No Comments

For as long as I can remember I have been keeping track of things in iCal. iCal’s printing function simply put…it sucks. One problem I have always had is being able to print ONLY the topics that came up from an iCal search.

Lets say I have an iCal group called “Photography”. now lets say that within that group I want to print all Events with a keywords “initial client meeting”. You simply cannot do it in iCal, so I created an action, which I offer here ( iCal Print select events (169)  ).

When you first open the action, it asks what iCal “group” you wish to choose from. It then asks for a filter such as a keyword, date, or whatever you want to use for your criteria, just enter the criteria. Next it compiles the results and slaps those results into a TextEdit document for you to print or save.

You should play around with the various workflow items to get EXACTLY what you want.

Hope this helps someone.
