Making a list that gets used
Tick the sections that fit your trip; the preview is exactly what prints. Sections keep a fixed order, from documents to the jobs to do before you lock the door, and your own lines go last under Extras. Bullets, dashes or numbers you paste in are tidied away.
The second tick box is for the journey home. Chargers, adapters and the book on the bedside table are the things most often left behind, and a quick pass down the second column before you check out catches them. Turn on the quantity blank if you like to write "×3" next to each line.
One or two columns suit a fridge door; three columns squeeze longer lists onto a single sheet. The page prints in black on white with no site header or footer, and fits A4 and US Letter. To keep a copy, choose Save as PDF in the print dialog, or download a plain-text version for your notes app. Your choices are saved in this browser for next time.
Questions
Will it fit on one page?
Usually. The default six sections in two columns fit on one page. More sections, or many long items, can run onto a second; your browser's print preview shows exactly what you will get.
Can I save it as a PDF?
Yes. Press Print and pick Save as PDF (or Microsoft Print to PDF) as the printer.
Is my list stored anywhere?
Only in this browser's local storage, so it is waiting next time you open the page on this device. Nothing is uploaded. Start over clears it.
