GM Screen Hack Pack conversion help request
Hello, I'm hoping somebody with Adobe indesign can help me out. I have the Savage Worlds Customizable GM Screen ( http://paizo.com/store/byCompany/s/studio2Publishing/savageWorlds/corePr...) which I'd love to use for EP. I've got two problems: 1. the format of my GM screen is landscape and there are only 6 panels total, 3 facing the Gm, and 3 facing the Players. The "official" EP GM screen comes as 8 portrait pages. 2. I don't own indesign so I am not able to play with the hack pack indd files! I am hopeful that someone will do a save as of the indd files into a format that I can use with Scribus (http://www.scribus.net/canvas/Scribus) to make an alternate version of the EP GM Screen. Here's what I know about the file formats Scribus can open/import: Scribus native = .SLA Scribus native = .SCD Post Script = EPS or PS Scalable Vector Graphics = SVG Does anyone have enough knowledge about Adobe indesign to help me out? Thank you, Jake

Indesign will export to EPS, but the individual pieces that make up the page (Text boxes and tables) do not survive the process. I don't own the hack pack, so I can't help on that end. (I assume that they are CC as well?)

Hooray for incomplete thoughts... I have Indesign so I don't mind just doing the conversions once I get a copy of the screen hack pack (looking for it). I'm assuming you just want me to turn everything to landscape format?

Re: GM Screen Hack Pack conversion help request
Thanks for the link, this looks very nice! I can always use scotch tap and have one page (the least used) underneath another... I would still like to see what I could do with the files in Scribus so please convert the files, in either portrait or landscape, into one of the file formats I mentioned above. Thank you, Jake
