[QUOTE="MNblockhead, post: 9311394, member: 6796661"] This. I would love to have some of my TTRPG rule books on my Kindle so that I could read up on the rules when on a long plane ride in economy class where using a laptop is impractical or uncomfortable. The PDFs of most TTRPG books are nearly unreadable on a kindle. I suppose I should just get a full-powered tablet PC, but I just don't like them for reading. Even when you do have a proper device for displaying PDFs, many publishers don't do a great job making full use of a PDF-readers functionality. At least it is common to include bookmarks, which I consider a bare minimum. It is much less common to have internal hyperlinks linked rule terms, spell and monster names, and other cross-referenceable content to the sections in the PDF. For adventures with maps in the PDF, it would be nice to have the maps formatted for printing at scale or more easily bringing into a VTT. 0one Games is the gold standard for me when it comes to PDF maps. Check out their in-pdf control panel allowing you to toggle what map features are displayed, color, etc. Plus they generally give you JPGs for VTT use along with the PDF purchase. Below is an example of their "Rule the Dungeon" control panel in their [I]Dwarven Depths: Trade Way[/I] PDF map. I wish more publishers would be more creative with their PDF products.
