I was speaking as a fan explaining what I would like to see and continuing to discuss the issue. I did not intend to offend. I feel that saying, put up or shut up to a fan and customer is extremely bad business sense, would you ever do that in your day job?First it would take a full on moron to even attempt to claim that adding bells and whistles doesn't add to file size. Secondly it would take the same full on moron to say that it won't increase price.Thirdly it will increase the time to market.Most of the things I suggested were not that far out there. Take linking indexes and cross references for example. In other facets of the pdf industry not doing this is considered amaturish, however in the rpg pdf market it is the standard - I simply ask why?Why can't an electronic publisher even properly link their document?Why are electronic publishers so against using technology in their products?Why doesn't someone, anyone, try it and see what happens instead of saying it is impossible because.....?Why doesn't someone find creative ways around the cost prohibitions?Why doesn't someone get creative with delivery methods so that large files aren't a problem anymore?It is these whys that I usually do not get sufficient answers to. Just so everyone knows it takes to long to link a pdf is not an acceptable answer from a professional publisher. You'd be pretty upset if I told you that your website is buggey because error checking takes too long wouldn't you?</blockquote>
