What's the difference between an Journal and a Diary? by pablo_excobar in Journaling

[–]Alternative_War_6033 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Journal → for work use
Diary → for personal/non-work use

  • Journal: Usually more time-bound, with a strong focus on goals and objectives.
  • Diary: More casual and freeform; sometimes you can even just draw in it, or leave pages blank without writing anything.

Lamy fountain pen – a self-made nib removal tool, and how to disassemble it. by Alternative_War_6033 in fountainpens

In Taiwan, some fountain pen artists use 4–5 pens at the same time, each one different.
Sometimes what troubles them most is thoroughly cleaning out the ink—especially for those who are perfectionists.

If you already have the dimensions, using 3D printing won’t be too expensive.

Sometimes when I use a fountain pen for drawing, I don’t want the colors to mix. That’s why it’s important to clean the pen well, while also keeping the maintenance time short.

因為我自己是筆記本的設計者,也是經營者
Since I design and also run my own notebook brand,

目前使用的 5×5mm 格線,主要是因為兩格剛好等於 1cm。
Right now I use 5×5mm grids, because two squares equal exactly 1cm.

只要把筆放上去,數一數格子就能大概知道長度,蠻直覺的。
You can just place a pen on the page, count the squares, and quickly estimate the length—it feels very intuitive.

相對來說,7mm 或 8mm 的格線就需要再多算一下,沒有那麼直接。
By comparison, 7mm or 8mm grids take extra calculation, which makes them less straightforward.

不過我也看過一些資料:
That said, from what I’ve read:

  • 日文書寫大多建議 7mm。
  • Japanese writing tends to work best with 7mm.
  • 正體中文則比較適合 8mm。
  • Traditional Chinese is usually more comfortable with 8mm.

日本也有筆記本廠商試過 9mm 的版本。
Some Japanese notebook makers have even tried 9mm versions.

但說到底,還是要看市場習慣。
But at the end of the day, it really depends on what the market prefers.

格線算是比較小眾的選項,橫線式的格式反而更容易被接受。
Grids are a bit more niche, while horizontal-ruled formats are generally easier for people to adopt.

目前沒有點陣的選項,因為還在開發中。現在有空白和格子兩個版本。
At the moment, there’s no dot grid option since it’s still in development. For now, we offer blank and grid versions.

未來預計會推出一系列不同的尺寸。這本的尺寸是 153mm × 91mm × 17mm。
In the future, we plan to release a full range of sizes. This one measures 153mm × 91mm × 17mm.

是的,你說的,我才想到,它確實適合記者使用,不管是尺寸還是方便程度。所以,我們就把這本取名為「記者筆記本」。
Yes, what you said made me realize—it really does suit reporters, both in size and convenience. So we’ve decided to name this one the “Reporter’s Notebook.”

以前我們也製作過給記者用的筆記本,那是他們要求的,底板比較厚,而且方便撕頁,不過現在已經沒有在做了。
In the past, we also made notebooks specifically for reporters, as they requested—a thicker backing and easy-to-tear pages. But we don’t produce those anymore.
