[QUOTE="I'm A Banana, post: 5458397, member: 2067"] YEAH! WotC doesn't want you posting its potential IP to your blog and having people accessing it without paying the piper! You evil infringing pirate you! How dare you give away stuff for free to your other players! The designers worked hard on this! &c. ;) My guess is that it's more likely to be part of the whole "functionally borked" part of the online CB, rather than an IP thing. Though the printing-to-images is more likely to be an IP thing, though not necessarily a WotC IP thing. Silverlight often presents itself as a "more secure" way to do stuff over the internet, so as to ruin those evil infringers' days for that precious, precious IP. Printing to images (so you can't easily copypasta text) might be a part of that. Though if you'd like to use some crafty work-arounds: [URL="http://www.primopdf.com/index.aspx"]Print to a PDF[/URL], then slip it into [URL="https://www.evernote.com/"]Evernote[/URL], which automatically OCR's your images, turning images of text back into text. There's probably more than one way to skin this cat, though, IMO, we shouldn't have to skin it at all. [/QUOTE]
