As a result, covers are harder to find and fall either into the pricey handmade leather goods category or the less durable non-leather/leather look category that has iffy durability. In recent years, B6-sized planners and inserts have been becoming popular though most of the covers and inserts are being produced by independent makers or imported from Asia and not being sold by larger companies like Filofax. The Classic binder in Franklin Covey and DayRunner use this size.

There are even systems built around the standard US 3-ring binder in either full Letter size or the half-sheet size (5.5×8.5″).

This size is considered the least portable as a full binder large enough to hold A4 or US Letter paper is going to be heavy and bulky. If you have a job that requires a lot of daily meetings and tasks you might consider the A4/Letter size.

This size might seem a bit too small for a daily planner but it is often used as a wallet since it can fit in a pocket.įor bigger options, the A4 or the Monarch/US Letter planner (depending on whether you are choosing an European brand or an American brand respectively) is a good desk planner option. The Pocket size holds paper slightly smaller than a 3×5 index card in the Filofax sizing and just slightly larger than a 3″x5″ in the Franklin Covey sizing. Other popular sizes are the A5 (also called the “half sheet” size since its approximately 5.5×8.5″ making it half of a US letter-sized sheet or half an A4). To add to the confusion, Filofax sells a binder size called “Compact” which accepts the same paper sizes as their Personal binders but features smaller rings and an overall smaller binder profile, similar to the “Slimline” binder. Finally, the Personal size is a common size for custom inserts which might be appealing if you need something specific. Using Franklin Covey inserts in a Filofax may be a little too tight and Filofax inserts in a Franklin may have a bit too much excess space but the option is there. The Personal size offers the widest range of potential planner refills, while the overall size of the planner is still portable. Binders designed for the Compact-sized paper are a bit wider to accommodate the larger paper. The Personal (Filofax, et al) and Compact (Franklin) sizes are the same height and feature the same 6-hole configuration (two sets of three holes placed to the top and bottom of the spine) but the Personal size pages is about a 1/2″ wider. I’d recommend keeping a note with the measurements of your preferred planner insert size handy and always check the written size unless you are buying the refills to coordinate with your planner brand.

Filofax, Kikki K, DayRunner, DayTimer and others use the “Personal” sized pages but each company has their own name for the size. Franklin Covey is the only company I’m aware of that uses the “Compact” size. The most popular planner size is the Personal (paper is 95mm x 170mm, or 3.75″ x 6.75″ - PLOTTER has decided to call this size “Bible” which is extra confusing) or the Compact (with paper measuring 4.25” x 6.75″).
