    Decipher.com has pdf sheets now

    FYI: Decipher has pdf versions of the char sheet included in the book available for download.

    Sure, it's ugly. So?

    Talking

    So we all wait for Don's Spiffy Sheet (TM) to be complete before doing anything silly, like trying to print Decipher's PDF for instance .

    Irrelevant...

    Aaaargh but still no date for the NG!!!!

    Wouldn't Decipher's marketing department be a bit on the sadistic side ?

    Heh ... I was worried I was going to be in this situation soon ... now if even the mastercraftsman faces the same problem I guess it really can't be helped .

    I tend to use a different word. Starts with an "I", though.

    I've taken the Decipher sheet, turned it into black & white (not greyscale... solid black and solid white) and inverted it... so it's black text on white paper... (and had to re-invert some of the fill in boxes) and now have a very neat printing, b&w sheet

    Here's a thumbnail of the front:


    While Don's sheet is nice and all... I apparently lack whatever is needed to use it, since I can't "fill in the form" and all the totals are already generated as zero (thus, filling in the spaces). That and there's some big black block in the upper right hand corner. So I will err on the side of completeness. *shrug*

    PG:
    Unfortunately, this word applies to many marketing department (that said from a developer's point of view).

    Acroyear:
    You need Acrobat 5.0 ... it's free to download (well, the viewer is) at adobe's website. Your sheet looks nice though ... but I guess I still prefer the DSS(TM) .

    DOH!

    I'm a whole version behind...

    Ah well, it was 15-20 minutes not doing work here at the office... lol

    If anyone's interested in the B&W style like the thumbnail, I'll toss the two files up and provide some links.

    If they would just reverse the black to white...

    ...and make it a form....

    Good God!!!

    What are the pdf people at Decipher drinking.

    I have just looked at their pdf, it 2.6 MEG in size


    I think that Decipher should toss in a free black ink cartridge with every download, along with photo quality paper to prevent those wrinkly soggy sheets.

    Yup. Stop trying to fix it, guys. It's only getting worse.

    I like the variant on Don's sheet that's been posted.
