How many people can it track?

You set the number of columns. Five or six stays comfortably readable at A4, and beyond that the columns narrow to the point where names crowd. Splitting across two sheets works better than squeezing everyone onto one.

Can I put the names on before printing?

Yes. Column names are part of the settings and print onto the sheet, so you do not have to write them in by hand every month.

Can I print more than one month?

Yes. Choose how many months to generate and the PDF runs that many pages, which is useful for a school term rather than a single fridge month.

Why landscape rather than portrait?

Columns need width. Portrait narrows every column at once, and the names in the header are the first thing to stop fitting.

About the family calendar layout

A printable family calendar gives each person their own column, so a household can see every schedule side by side instead of guessing whose activity clashes with whose. Name the columns after the people in your house, print it, and put it where everyone walks past.

Set the number of columns to match your family and type the names in before printing. You can also choose how many months to generate, so you can run a single month on the fridge or print a longer stretch for a school term. Column names print onto the sheet, which saves rewriting them by hand each time.

Landscape is the default and the layout relies on it, because columns need horizontal room and a portrait page squeezes them until names no longer fit in the header. The more people you add, the narrower each column becomes, so five or six is where it stays comfortable at A4. If you are running more names than that, print on US Letter for the extra width or split the household across two sheets. The calendar types guide covers the single column layouts.
