    ENnies - Ceramic DM Fundraiser -- Now ON SALE!

    The way I see it is the Ceramic DM is based around fiction. Since we don't have a fiction category, the product would never be considered for an ENnie, and thus you would be clear to judge.

    How do you use PDFs?

    While Hound has been at school with a rather large print spool (oooooh, baby), he's printed a bunch of PDFs- none of which we've used. On the other hand, we've used a bunch of PDFs on screen either on his laptop at the table, or his PC right next to it. I use PDFs when writing, and prefer the...

    Stroke my ego, please

    Bride of Portable Hole: The Book of Neurotic Fantasy I've dedicated the last two weeks of my life to this book, and I'm not getting paid for it. Neither are all the awesome contributors (almost all of whom are ENWorlders)- artist and writer alike. Spring weather, a sick Hound working hard to...

    URGENT- Please Help!

    Solved it! I went into Quark's Utilities/Usage, and no use of helvetica was mentioned. Then I noticed that one of my fonts doesn't include a " symbol, and when we went to print it into a PDF, Distiller went to substitue a Helvetica font instead. So I got rid of the ", and all was well. Now...

    URGENT- Please Help!

    Thanks for the speedy response! Under "Utilities" "Usage", it lists all the fonts used, but Helvetica isn't one of the ones listed, so I'm really confused. Especially since any time I open a document using Quark it usually screams at me to say it can't find such-and-such a font, and no such...

    The Campaign Setting/Setting Supplement ended up as the result of combining the two campaign-specific categories. It's there as a separate category from Best Supplement mostly to recognize the challenges and daring it takes to release a campaign setting (and supplements therefor). Heck, in...
