📅 TimelineMaker – Create timelines quickly and professionally.

Do you need to visualize historical periods, projects, or future plans? Then TimelineMaker is one of the best tools for creating beautiful, easy-to-read timelines—without spending hours in PowerPoint, Word or tegneprogrammer.


What is TimelineMaker?

TimelineMaker is a simple yet powerful program for Windows that helps you build timelines with dates, text, and color-coding. It’s especially well suited for:

  • Students working on assignments about the Roman Empire, World War II, or Ancient Greece
  • Teachers and instructors who want to present historical sequences or project phases
  • Planners and project managers looking to structure events, trips, or company events

You can quickly enter your events in a list—and the software does the rest.


Features and capabilities

  • Easy interface: Just enter events, dates, and optional descriptions
  • Start and end dates: Perfect for longer events or periods
  • Multiple visual themes: Customize colors and layout
  • Export options: Save your timelines as images, PDF, or for printing
  • Automatic layout: No manual tweaking required

In the free trial version, you can use all features—but your timelines will include a small watermark. If you want to use them in official contexts (assignments, presentations, or publications), a license is required.


Who should use TimelineMaker?

  • Elever og studerende at all levels
  • Undervisere, who want to make teaching more visual
  • Project managers and planners
  • History enthusiasts and genealogists mapping family history

Tips for use

Use the software for travel planning, e.g., “Berlin, day 1–4”.

Use short titles and optional color-coding for different categories

Add both years and descriptions—the program supports both

Export as PNG or PDF for sharing or printing
