Using Google Calendar it's possible to download a PDF of your schedule in a format that's easy to read on your tablet. The Print button in the webapp next to the view buttons brings you to a page where you can set some options to customize a PDF to download which is designed for printing, but also can be suitable for reading on your tablet.

Any of the views could be comfortably usable with the right settings selected, but as an example, week view is very readable printed as landscape at the "bigger" font size. I have attached a PDF of such a calendar as an example for people who don't use Google Calendar, though it might not work so well with too many more events; my calendar is a little on the non-busy side. Also, my events at 4am are kinda "hacks." They're untimed chore reminders, but since All Day events in Google Calendar can only take up one line in the print view, and my reminder notes are more than one word and in a large font size, I made them events at times I would normally be asleep anyway. Every night I also schedule an event from 5am to 6am with my daily goal for the next day, determined the night before; the one thing that if someone asked me what I did that day, I'd have a definitive answer. I put it on my Agenda calendar because it's a plan for the day and to make it a different color. It's no Dates 1.0, but it does offer one-way syncing with a popular web calendar.

Views really well with Evince fullscreen. Might work with the built-in PDF reader, but some combinations of settings and views lead to "not enough memory" errors for some PDFs.

It might also be helpful to keep mutliple PDFs of different view/calendar combinations. In addition to my weekly calendar I keep a monthly calendar with just Agenda, Events, and Holidays, "printing" it out every night that it gets changed, and with a reminder on the last Sunday of the month to start printing next months instead (since I'm using it to plan in advance and the weekly calendars already cover me for that last week). I also keep an Agenda View PDF with just an Upcoming.org calendar for Seattle set for 10 days at portrait with descriptions on so I know what's going on if I want to get out. If my weekly calendar included a job, I might also be keeping an Agenda view calendar with open and closing times of various places that delivered food.

To add new events I keep notes in Sketch currently (planning to move to Xournal or Maemopad+ soon) and every night add them to my Google Calendar (in Prism, a completely awesome tool but entirely off-topic) and download new PDFs as neccessary. It's hackish, but it works for me, and I hope it helps someone else.

Edited: Besides adding a bunch of content, I added a second calendar which is the one I meant to add the first time, but since the one I didn't mean to add (non-busy Thankgiving week) shows my Task of the Day hack, I decided to leave it up for those who might have been interested in that aspect of the thing.
