Message: <blockquote data-quote="nedjer" data-source="post: 5553017" data-attributes="member: 83796">Simply trying to suggest that all PC options are open to Mac users too and that years of PDFs as a 'locked down' format it's now a snap to move around the various formats. (You'd get a hyperlinked PDF, but I go with the unzipped version or unpacking and moving html files via Windows, as it places everything where you want and just works).PDFs can certainly include a host of interactive features, but 'fancy' PDFs never seem to have materialised - due to the effort required to apply/ develop such features. It'd take me a few hours to add say content switching, Google mapping, PC gen menus and RSS hooks to PC sheets in html. It'd take weeks to do the same in PDF. The PDF would plain fall down if I attempted what I'm currently up to, i.e. starting to integrate the html with a full forum facility and multimedia campaign resource.Getting over-enthusiastic again, but the options here are pretty huge. Any game group with a copy of my Wordpress shell, can click a couple of buttons and have an independent, portable, integrated forum, custom rule set, multimedia campaign resource . . . running in a few minutes. No html, css or php skills required, just plain Wordpress. So everyone in a club or a whole society can contribute, no company can take anything away and it all costs next to zero.It'll take a while to populate and hook up our take on this, as we've only got it running over the last week and it's primary purpose is to support our new game Renegade. However, there's no doubt that players, groups and campaigns can already have an independent 'DDI' facility, and more, without jumping through IT hoops or paying. Be most interested to hear how shifting it using the Dropbox route works, as that's not quite the same route as my wealthy iPad owning mates have shown me?</blockquote>
