Have the Core PDFs been Updated Yet?

[defendi]

When they announced that the PDFs on RPGNow for the D&D 4e core rulebooks had been updated, someone bought them and said they didn't contain any rules updates. Anyone know if they've been updated yet? The preview doesn't seem to contain updates.

Yes they are updated with errata that was in the Special Edition Versions

Any chance that the printed core books will be updated soon?

I've downloaded the PHB again, and it is updated through the 4th errata.

I went out last night and bought the PHB and DMG after the Rouse confirmed they have the errata. They look great. A lot more than just the errata. It's fully bookmarked and so far all the of page references I've found are hyperlinked.

Even more interesting are the pdf bundles they are doing with Fiery Dragon. I'm a big mini guy, but if I wasn't, getting counters for all the monsters in an adventure would be perfect. Good job on making that happen.

Anyway, PHB and DMG look great. I'll start backfilling my D&D collection with PDFs based on those.

I've seen this go by a couple of times unanswered on this site. . .

How about a definite answer? From Mr. Rouse, perhaps? Being the only WotC representative I'm aware of seeing here on a regular basis, just seems more likely that most, is all.

This has already been addressed afaik.

This has already been addressed afaik.

The last two times I've seen it asked here on EN World, it went unanswered.

AFAIK, that is. If you can point me (and the people originally asking so far) to where it is addressed, please do. Thanks!

We know the files have been updated (else we wouldn't have errataed PDFs). The books are made on the basis of those files (Sorry, can't recall what they are called). It's pretty obvious that the next print run will incorporate the errata.

I took his question to be about when the erratad books would actually be out. I don't think that anybody has said. I also think that it's kind of arbitrary, I mean when the current run gets low enough to demand it, then they'll know. When was the last print run?
