[QUOTE="mwj258, post: 4376845, member: 61076"] [b]Problems Printing[/b] Hi First a personnal statement on what I want from a purchased PDF: I buy PDF's to print because I find it easier and more satisfying to read from a physical book rather than on a monitor, therefore printing is essential in any PDF I buy. Now my Problem: Has anyone else had problems printing the RPGNOW MM and DMG? In the MM it is page 279(Book number page) / page 280 (PDF Page) that will not print, or allow any other pages to be printed when it is included in the pages selected to be printed. The DMG is even worse with multiple pages that wont print (didn't have time to track them exactly but found at least 3!). Edit this is with both Adobe reader 6 and Adobe Professional 8. To say I am Fracked off is an understatement,:rant::rant: I bought the dead tree copies when they came out, but wanted copies I could fold flat, so seeing the PDF's and reading that cut and paste is enabled I decided to buy them but now I find you can't print them, or at least not all of each book. Now to be fair, I think it is a simple mistake (maybe part of the indexing?) and not a plot by WoTC, and I expect that when the PDF's are updated this problem will go away:D, BUT I have already paid for a sub-standard product and I dont know when (or if!) this problem will be resolved. I also think that the price is too high ,and would prefer 50% the price at which I would have considered buying most 4e PDF's, but at 70% of the paper copies I will now buy only those PDF's that I know will be useful, so no Forgotten Realms or other world/campaign books for me now. I like 4E, it is the easiest DnD I have run in the last 32yrs, the players are having fun and I want to support WoTC, but trust is an attribute that is very fragile and once gone is very difficult to get back (in my mind). Combining the loss of functionality and, in my view, the high price has used up 2 of WoTC's 3 trust points from me. To Scott I have this to say, please say this is a mistake and will be fixed quickly, because I think that the high price and the broken functionality is an Excellent way to drive your target audience to not purchase your products and/or find an alternative that is cheaper/unbroken. I know that for me 1 more problem and I will be spending my money elsewhere. Regards Mark [/QUOTE]
