Try using Google Chrome, it keeps about 90%+ of the formatting intact when copy/pasting into Word 2007. If using Open Office 3 not as good, and I can't test Word 03.

Or OneNote. Much better campaign/adventure organizer than Word. And format is exact, as I copy the image (and only as much of the image as I want), not the text.

Now that they're in the character builder, I find I'm really grooving on them. I think I'll add them to my campaign, and flavor them as more like the mythological tengu - trickster spirits with legendary sword skills and a penchant for long nosed masks, rather than just a race of bird men.

Eh... I mess around with the numbers too much for that.

I was going to reply with I need it to be able to work with IE6 bcause I access it a lot from work and can't change the browser... But that no longer matters. They blocked the wizards site (and enworld) at my job recently.

So now I can only access when at home and when I work from home.

Oh well... probably much better for my work ethic anyway.

Me too. I use Asmor's Monster Maker when I do that. Work's well and my notes are both spiffy and organized.

This month marks the point where I'm subscribing to ddi for the Compendium even more than for the character builder. Holy cow, NOTHING makes prepping for adventures easier than being able to quickly draw from every single monster & magic item published in any book or magazine, all in front of me at once. If they copied over without screwed-up formatting it'd be even better.

I have a bunch of kenku minis I can't wait to use. They're just so creepy-cool.

 

[Fallen Seraph]

I'm gonna have fun with them too, they have a nice visual flare that will look nice in my campaign setting amongst all the other races (which is dozens, upon dozens (all the people of the planes (who survived) on one plane in only a couple cities ))

I'm banking on the upcoming campaign tools to produce a more usable encounter builder that actually includes the stat blocks, nicely formatted. I can already see myself browsing through the compendium, adding monsters to my "shopping cart" (and feeling briefly sorry for my PCs when I overshoot my budget), and then "checking out" to produce a delve-style spread of all the formatted stat blocks. Come on, WotC, do it now!

Yeah I use the monster maker too... So hrmmm now that I think about it, maybe I'll give it a shot.
