Message: <blockquote data-quote="Daztur" data-source="post: 6100131" data-attributes="member: 55680">OK, I've been mucking about in Word and Libreoffice looking at how to set up links and cross references. From what I can tell with Word I can enter in bookmarks and make a cross reference that tells me the page of the book mark but when I change what page the bookmark is on the references don't update. With Libreoffice they do.So what we could do is stick in page number references using Libreoffice (the conversion has a few weird side effects like weird page breaks but should be easy to clear up) so instead of (or in addition to) saying what hex to refer to it says what page to refer to. So we stick in a bookmark that says "Lady Natala" and put in a cross reference that is both a link (so if you click on it it sends you to Lady Natala) but also a page number reference that tells you what page information about Lady Natala can be found on so it works as a physical book as well as a PDF.Seems like that'd work, thought it'd be a bit time-consuming to enter in all of the bookmarks and references to them.So next things to hammer out:-Want to change the font and other format details? I notice you're using pretty different ones from mine. I think mine crams in more words per page since it has two columns and uses the pretty compact Century Gothic font for most text, although of course the pictures bloat it up a bit.-How specifically to organize the stuff at the head of each region and the stuff that gets shuffled off to the appendixes. Your appendixes are pretty different from the stub ones in my version.I think that the really vital ones for the appendix are races and religions. Most other text can be put into the region that it's based in. What about "stories?" They're pretty nebulous and a bit hard to sort.The final thing is how to go about organizing hexes with lots of sub-hexes (Shuttered especially) a lot of them are really ripe with stuff that can get shuffled elsewhere and reorganized, but how to organize what's left? Organizing stuff in Shuttered according to the order it was written (as it is now) is probably not the best bet in the long term. But what about the hexes with just one or two subhex, thinking about what to do with those...</blockquote>
