I couldn't find a better forum to request this, but is there any chance that when creating PDFs for the game in the future, you can set the initial display so that it uses the default settings rather than forcing a full-page display? So that people who set their default display to Fit Width, Fit Height, or any of the other options don't have to keep zooming or reconfiguring the display every time they open the file. It's kind of annoying to have to zoom in each and every time I access the files during a game. Thank you in advance.

Remember that the files are unlocked, which means you can modify them to your hearts content. I've already made a few modified versions of the books for myself, including one where I completely omit chapter 12 for player use. Do with the pdf as you wish.

Do you need a full copy of Acrobat to do that? I don't know how you'd do it through reader, or is there a free PDF editor about that can be used? G.

You could always use Adobes 30 day free trial for Acrobat. Thats what I did when I made my auto calculating character sheet.

Yes, but you can ask someone to do it for you. If there's any specific way you want the books to be modified, let me know.

That would be groovy. Exactly the same as you've done - a copy for my players that ecxludes all the super secret stuff. G.

[url=http://www.mediafire.com/?tywnjywcodm]Here you go.[/url] The table of contents has been censored, and the pages have been re-numbered. This means that the omitted pages will be obvious to the players, which is perfect for me because I loved getting my players paranoid about what part of the book I might have redacted.
