I do use a DM screen, but I have it sitting by the side of my DM-space and pick it up to check common skill modifiers and conditions. I really don't want to use it to look up monster abilities or routine combat. I like having a decent stat block in front of me when I run the game, one of the few things the Delve format is actually good for. What I usually do is cut and paste stat blocks together into a Word or Pages document. Either I get them right from the adventure's PDF file or I nab them from the Bestiary's PDF file. At game time, I have them printed out so I can note conditions/hp loss on them or make any other run-time annotations. I've got the adventure's PDF called up on my iPad, my printed stat blocks, and my screen and I'm largely set to go.Agreed! I found them very difficult to read. The newer 3e/PF formats may take up more column space, but they're actually readable. And that's even more important than space-saving.</blockquote>
