Use these steps to work with NozomuNoto PDF planners, notebooks, stickers, covers, and template pages in Notability. The official links below are for downloads, updates, and current help pages.

First-day setup

Keep your first setup small. Do this before decorating, organizing every section, copying every template, or setting up the whole planner.

  1. Save the original download as your clean backup.
  2. Import the actual planner or notebook PDF into Notability.
  3. Open the imported planner or notebook.
  4. Go to the Index page.
  5. Tap one link to test navigation with the hand tool.
  6. Write one small note or task.
  7. Try one real page you will use today.

Learn the planner by using one real page first. Bigger setup steps can wait until the basic workflow works.

Use these for current app or device help, downloads, updates, vendor help, and manual references.

Good first-day setup in Notability

The first day is for proving that the PDF imports, links move, handwriting works, Index is findable, and one real page works. Skip decorating, organizing every section, copying every template, and setting up the whole planner on day one.

When Notability feels confusing

What happens: tapping writes or selects instead of opening a planner link.

What to do: choose the hand tool, then test the same link again.

2. The planner feels too big

What happens: you try to set up every section at once and lose your place.

What to do: return to Index and use only one real page for today.

3. Template pages become messy

What happens: the clean template page was filled and there is no clean master left.

What to do: re-import a fresh copy of the original PDF and copy the clean template again.

4. Bookmarks are too crowded

What happens: every interesting page gets bookmarked, so Bookmarks becomes hard to use.

What to do: keep only Index, current month, current week, and active copied pages.
