Optimizing Activity Titles for Printing
To ensure your titles remain legible and stylish, keep them to 20 characters or fewer (including spaces). Tips include:
- Keep titles short
- Abbreviate: Use shorter forms (e.g., “Meeting” to “Mtg”).
- Prioritize: Focus on key details.
- Use Descriptions: Include detailed information in the description section rather than the title.
