[QUOTE="redrick, post: 7663526, member: 6777696"] I haven't looked too closely at this particular adventure, but I think, in general, most adventures can handle a more linear e-book formatting, and it doesn't require a whole lot of extra work. Sidebars and the like won't work with an ebook, but you simply need to plant the sidebar somewhere in your linear flow (NPC sidebar before or after the encounter?) and move on. The nice thing about ebook formatting is that the smaller page ultimately demands a lot less than a 2-column full-page layout. I've been running the Quests of Doom adventures through an OCR program, a few regular expressions and Calibre, and I can have them looking pretty good on my Kindle without too much work. I realize that "too much work" is entirely subjective, but if there are other folks out there who would value eBook friendly formats, it might be worth exploring? [/QUOTE]
